Entrez ID 2590
Gene name Polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2
Gene symbol GALNT2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CDG2TGalNAc-T2
Chromosome 1
Chromosome location 1q42.13
Summary This gene encodes a member of the glycosyltransferase 2 protein family. Members of this family initiate mucin-type O-glycoslation of peptides in the Golgi apparatus. The encoded protein may be involved in O-linked glycosylation of the immunoglobulin A1 hi
