polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 18; polypeptide galNAc transferase-like protein 4; galNAc-T-like protein 4; pp-GaNTase-like protein 4; polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-like protein 4; protein-UDP acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-like protein 4; UDP-galNAc:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-like protein 4 (GALNT18 GALNTL4)

Function: - may catalyze initial reaction in O-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis, transfer of N-acetyl-D-galactosamine residue to Ser or Thr on the nascent glycoprotein UDP-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine + polypeptide UDP + N-acetyl-D-galactosaminyl-polypeptide Cofactor: Mn+2, Ca+2 Structure: - belongs to glycosyltransferase 2 family, GalNAc-T subfamily. - two conserved domains in the glycosyltransferase region: a) N-terminal domain (domain A, GT1 motif) - Mn+2 coordination & substrate binding b) C-terminal domain (domain B, Gal/GalNAc-T motif) - catalytic reaction & UDP-Gal binding - ricin B-type lectin domain binds to GalNAc & contributes to glycopeptide specificity Compartment: Golgi membrane Alternative splicing: named isoforms=2
