Abstract

Glycosyltransferases constitute a large group of enzymes that are involved in a wide range of functions in all living organisms. By large-scale sequencing analysis of a human fetal brain cDNA library, we isolated a novel human putative glycosyltransferase gene named beta3GnTL1. Its cDNA is 1372 base pair in length, encoding a predicted protein with 361 amino acid residues. The human beta3GnTL1 is located to chromosome 17q25.3 by comparison of its cDNA with human gemome database. RT-PCR result shows the beta3GnTL1 is expressed at various levels in most of tissues examined.
