Like Glycosyltransferase (LARGE)

[Edit]

Glycosyltransferase-like protein LARGE1; Acetylglucosaminyltransferase-like 1A

Like Glycosyltransferase (LARGE)
LARGE, which is one of the largest in the human genome, encodes a member of the N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase gene family. It encodes a glycosyltransferase which participates in glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan, and may carry out the synthesis of glycoprotein and glycosphingolipid sugar chains.
It may also be involved in the addition of a repeated disaccharide unit. Mutations in this gene cause MDC1D, a novel form of congenital muscular dystrophy with severe mental retardation and abnormal glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants that encode the same protein.LARGE protein contains an N-terminal transmembrane domain, a coiled-coil domain, and 2 catalytic domains.
