CSGALNACT1

Gene
CSGALNACT1
Protein
Chondroitin sulfate N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 1
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
532 amino acids
Function
Transfers 1,4-N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) from UDP-GalNAc to the non-reducing end of glucuronic acid (GlcUA). Required for addition of the first GalNAc to the core tetrasaccharide linker and for elongation of chondroitin chains. Important role in chondroitin chain biosynthesis in cartilage formation and subsequent endochondral ossification (PubMed:11788602, PubMed:12163485, PubMed:12446672, PubMed:17145758). Moreover, is involved in the metabolism of aggrecan (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the chondroitin N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase family.
