Pomgnt1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable beta-1,3-galactosyl-O-glycosyl-glycoprotein beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity and manganese ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in O-glycan processing. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including nervous system development; protein O-linked mannosylation; and reactive gliosis. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in lissencephaly; muscular dystrophy (multiple); and retinitis pigmentosa. Orthologous to human POMGNT1 (protein O-linked mannose N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 1 (beta 1,2-)). [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 rat Pomgnt1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
