O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) transferase (OGT) has 13.5 tetratricopeptide-repeats (TPR) and a globular catalytic domain. The gene encoding this protein is localized on human chromosome Xq13.1.
Immunogen
Peptide with sequence C-YEHPKDLKLSDGR from the internal region of the protein sequence according to NP_858058.1; NP_858059.1.
Biochem/physiol Actions
O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) transferase (OGT) has a role in the addition of O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) to serine/threonine residues in the protein of interest. It is crucial for O-GlcNAcylation of RNA polymerase II. Absence of OGT has been shown to reduce transcription and pol II promoter occupancy. The gene is upregulated in breast cancer tissues, colon cancer, lung cancer and laryngeal cancer. This protein might be associated with tumorigenesis and metastasis.
