Mfng Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables O-fucosylpeptide 3-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. Involved in marginal zone B cell differentiation and regulation of Notch signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within blastocyst formation and positive regulation of Notch signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; limb; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human MFNG (MFNG O-fucosylpeptide 3-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Mfng often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
