Large2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables dystroglycan binding activity; glucuronosyltransferase activity; and xylosyltransferase activity. Involved in protein O-linked mannosylation. Located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; lung; sensory organ; skin; and urinary system. Orthologous to human LARGE2 (LARGE xylosyl- and glucuronyltransferase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Large2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
