XXYLT1

Chr 3

xyloside xylosyltransferase 1

Also known as: C3orf21

Enables magnesium ion binding activity; manganese ion binding activity; and xylosyl alpha-1,3-xylosyltransferase activity. Involved in O-glycan processing. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]
