Molecular cloning and characterization of a novel UDP-GlcNAc:GalNAc-peptide beta1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (beta 3Gn-T6), an enzyme synthesizing the core 3 structure of O-glycans

The core 3 structure of the O-glycan, GlcNAcbeta1-3GalNAcalpha1-serine/threonine, an important precursor in the biosynthesis of mucin-type glycoproteins, is synthesized by UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:GalNAc-peptide beta1,3-N- acetylglucosaminyltransferase (beta3Gn-T; core 3 synthase). The core 3 structu...
