Human Gene B3GAT3 (ENST00000265471.10) from GENCODE V43
Description: Homo sapiens beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase 3 (B3GAT3), transcript variant 5, non-coding RNA. (from RefSeq NR_109991) RefSeq Summary (NM_012200): The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the glucuronyltransferase gene family, enzymes that exhibit strict acceptor specificity, recognizing nonreducing terminal sugars and their anomeric linkages. This gene product catalyzes the formation of the glycosaminoglycan-protein linkage by way of a glucuronyl transfer reaction in the final step of the biosynthesis of the linkage region of proteoglycans. A pseudogene of this gene has been identified on chromosome 3. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000265471.10 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000149541.10 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr11:62,615,296-62,621,986 Size: 6,691 Total Exon Count: 5 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chr11:62,615,701-62,621,947 Size: 6,247 Coding Exon Count: 5
ID:B3GA3_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Galactosylgalactosylxylosylprotein 3-beta-glucuronosyltransferase 3; EC=2.4.1.135; AltName: Full=Beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase 3; AltName: Full=Glucuronosyltransferase I; Short=GlcAT-I; AltName: Full=UDP-GlcUA:Gal beta-1,3-Gal-R glucuronyltransferase; Short=GlcUAT-I; FUNCTION: Glycosaminoglycans biosynthesis. Involved in forming the linkage tetrasaccharide present in heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate. Transfers a glucuronic acid moiety from the uridine diphosphate-glucuronic acid (UDP-GlcUA) to the common linkage region trisaccharide Gal-beta-1,3-Gal-beta-1,4-Xyl covalently bound to a Ser residue at the glycosaminylglycan attachment site of proteoglycans. Can also play a role in the biosynthesis of l2/HNK-1 carbohydrate epitope on glycoproteins. Shows strict specificity for Gal-beta-1,3-Gal-beta-1,4-Xyl, exhibiting negligible incorporation into other galactoside substrates including Galbeta1-3Gal beta1-O-benzyl, Galbeta1-4GlcNAc and Galbeta1-4Glc. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: UDP-glucuronate + 3-beta-D-galactosyl-4-beta- D-galactosyl-O-beta-D-xylosylprotein = UDP + 3-beta-D- glucuronosyl-3-beta-D-galactosyl-4-beta-D-galactosyl-O-beta-D- xylosylprotein. COFACTOR: Manganese. ENZYME REGULATION: Inhibited by EDTA. PATHWAY: Protein modification; protein glycosylation. SUBUNIT: Homodimer; disulfide-linked. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Golgi apparatus, cis-Golgi network. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitous (but weakly expressed in all tissues examined). PTM: N-glycosylated. DISEASE: Defects in B3GAT3 are the cause of multiple joint dislocations short stature craniofacial dysmorphism and congenital heart defects (JDSSDHD) [MIM:245600]. An autosomal recessive disease characterized by dysmorphic facies, bilateral dislocations of the elbows, hips, and knees, clubfeet, and short stature, as well as cardiovascular defects. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 43 family. WEB RESOURCE: Name=GGDB; Note=GlycoGene database; URL="http://riodb.ibase.aist.go.jp/rcmg/ggdb/";
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
