Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * B4GALT1 is a transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. * It is highly expressed in epithelial cells, particularly in tissues such as the skin, lungs, and mammary gland. * B4GALT1 is also expressed in immune cells, including macrophages and dendritic cells. **Pathways and functions:** * B4GALT1 is involved in the asparagine n-linked glycosylation pathway, a complex process that adds sugar molecules to asparagine residues in proteins. * It is also involved in the synthesis of galactocerebroside G, a sugar that is essential for the structural integrity of cell membranes. * B4GALT1 also plays a role in the regulation of inflammation by interacting with the immune system. * It has been shown to regulate the function of dendritic cells, which are cells that are responsible for presenting antigens to lymphocytes. * B4GALT1 is also involved in the development and maintenance of tissues in the mammary gland. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in B4GALT1 have been linked to several human diseases, including galactocerebroside G-deficient diseases, which are characterized by a lack of galactocerebroside G in the brain. * These diseases can cause a variety of symptoms, including intellectual disability, seizures, and developmental problems. * B4GALT1 is a potential therapeutic target for diseases caused by mutations in this gene. **Additional points:** * B4GALT1 is a highly conserved protein, with similar genes found in other mammals. * It is a ubiquitin-dependent protein, which means that it is targeted for degradation by the proteasome. * B4GALT1 is a relatively new protein, with the first human gene encoding this protein being identified in 1994.
