Function Summary
- Entrez Summary: N/A
- UniProt Summary: Glycosyltransferase that acts on alpha-linked mannose of N-glycans and O-mannosyl glycans. Catalyzes the transfer of N- acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to the beta 1-6 linkage of the mannose residue of GlcNAcbeta1,2-Manalpha on both the alpha1,3- and alpha1,6-linked mannose arms in the core structure of N-glycan. Also acts on the GlcNAcbeta1,2-Manalpha1-Ser/Thr moiety, forming a 2,6-branched structure in brain O-mannosyl glycan. Plays an active role in modulating integrin and laminin-dependent adhesion and migration of neuronal cells via its activity in the O-mannosyl glycan pathway. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12941944, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14617637, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14623122, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16606368, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16857188}.
