fibroblast isoform beta4GalT5 works predominantly in mouse embryonic fibroblasts Mus musculus

kidney male mice show much higher activity of LacCer synthesis than female mice in the kidney. Expression levels of the B4galt5 gene correlate with the LacCer synthase activity in the kidney Mus musculus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function B4galt6 KO mice are born and grow up apparently normal. LacCer synthase activity and the composition of acidic glycosphingolipids in the brain are almost equivalent or minimally different between wild-type and KO mice. B4GalT6 does not act as a major beta4GalT on the modification of glycoproteins Mus musculus
