General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the initial reaction in O-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis, the transfer of an N-acetyl-D-galactosamine residue to a serine or threonine residue on the protein receptor. It can both act as a peptide transferase that transfers GalNAc onto unmodified peptide substrates, and as a glycopeptide transferase that requires the prior addition of a GalNAc on a peptide before adding additional GalNAc moieties. Prefers the monoglycosylated Muc5AC-3 as substrate.

Catalytic activity

UDP-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine + polypeptide = UDP + N-acetyl-D-galactosaminyl-polypeptide. Ref.4

Cofactor

Manganese By similarity.

Calcium By similarity.

Pathway

Protein modification; protein glycosylation.

Subcellular location

Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in developing oocytes and egg chambers. Ref.4

Developmental stage

Expressed during embryonic, larval, pupal and adult stages. Weakly expressed in the male and female body and correspondingly low levels during early embryonic stages. Significantly expressed from embryonic stage 8-12 hours and reaches maximal levels in the pupae and male head. Ref.4

Domain

There are two conserved domains in the glycosyltransferase region: the N-terminal domain (domain A, also called GT1 motif), which is probably involved in manganese coordination and substrate binding and the C-terminal domain (domain B, also called Gal/GalNAc-T motif), which is probably involved in catalytic reaction and UDP-Gal binding By similarity.

The ricin B-type lectin domain binds to GalNAc and contributes to the glycopeptide specificity By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 2 family. GalNAc-T subfamily.

Contains 1 ricin B-type lectin domain.
