Abstract excerpt
The UDP-GalNAc:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (ppGaNTase) family of enzymes initiates mucin-like O-glycosylation of specific proteins. Using exon-prediction analysis on genomic sequence from human chromosome 12p13.3, we identified novel exons that shared significant homology with the ppGaNTases. cDNA library screening and RT-PCR produced the complete coding sequence of a novel human ppGaNTase...
