Background: Polypeptide GalNAc Transferase 14/GALNT14

O-glycosylation is a ubiquitous post-translational modification present in secreted and membrane-bound proteins. Polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferases (GALNTs) catalyze the initial step for O-glycosylation by transferring GalNAc to Thr or Ser residues (GalNAc alpha1-O-Ser/Thr) in the Golgi compartment. Structurally, the GALNTs consist of an N-terminal catalytic domain tethered by a short linker to a C-terminal ricin-like lectin domain containing three potential carbohydrate-binding sites (1, 2). Twenty distinct GALNT isoforms have been detected in humans. These isoforms display both unique and overlapping substrate specificities (3, 4, 5) with no known universal consensus glycosylation sequence. Glycosylation of mucins results from the successive, often hierarchical, action of several specific GALNTs (6). GALNT14 transfers GalNAc to mucin-derived peptide substrates such as Muc2, Muc5AC, Muc7, and Muc13 (7). GALNT14 is also a potential biomarker for breast cancer (8). The enzymatic activity of recombinant human GALNT14 was determined using a phosphatase-coupled assay (9).
