Background: Beta-1,3-N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase 2/B3GNT2

beta1,3-Linked GlcNAc residues are present in the backbone of various biologically important glycans which are involved in many essential biological functions such as keratan sulfate synthesis in corneal tissue (1). The addition of such residues are catalyzed by a family of beta1,3‑N‑acetylglucosaminyltransferases, that includes at least eight members (1‑5).  All of them are type II Golgi resident transmembrane proteins and have high homology to the beta1,3-galactosyltransferase family. beta1,3‑N‑acetylglucosaminyltransferases 2 or beta3GNT2 prefers the substrate lacto-N-neotetraose and is involved in the biosynthesis of poly-N-acetyllactosamine chains (6).
