sqv-2

Gene

sqv-2

Protein

Beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase sqv-2

Organism

Caenorhabditis elegans

Length

330 amino acids

Function

Beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase that transfers galactose from UDP-galactose to substrates with a terminal beta-linked galactose residue. Required for vulval morphogenesis and zygotic cytokinesis, suggesting that glycosaminoglycans play a central role in vulval morphogenesis.

Similarity

Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 31 family.

Mass
