Literature on MGAT4B
MGAT4B [ENSP00000338487]
Alpha-1,3-mannosyl-glycoprotein 4-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase B; Glycosyltransferase that participates in the transfer of N- acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to the core mannose residues of N-linked glycans. Catalyzes the formation of the GlcNAcbeta1-4 branch on the GlcNAcbeta1-2Manalpha1-3 arm of the core structure of N-linked glycans. Essential for the production of tri- and tetra-antennary N-linked sugar chains. Has lower affinities for donors or acceptors than MGAT4A, suggesting that, under physiological conditions, it is not the main contributor in N-glycan biosynthesis.
Synonyms: MGAT4B, MGAT4Bp, hMGAT4B, E5RFL0, E5RFS3 ...
