protein O-linked mannose N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 1 (beta 1,2-)

GNTI.2|GnT I.2|LGMD2O|MEB|MGAT1.2|RP76|gnT-I.2
This gene encodes a type II transmembrane protein that resides in the Golgi apparatus. It participates in O-mannosyl glycosylation and is specific for alpha linked terminal mannose. Mutations in this gene may be associated with muscle-eye-brain disease and several congenital muscular dystrophies. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014].
