General annotation (Comments)

Function	Can initiate the synthesis or the elongation of the linear poly-N-acetyllactosaminoglycans. Ref.1
Catalytic activity	UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine + beta-D-galactosyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl-R = UDP + N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->3)-beta-D-galactosyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl-R.
Pathway	Protein modification; protein glycosylation.
Subcellular location	Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein.
Tissue specificity	In the adult, highly expressed in heart, brain, skeletal muscle and kidney and to a lesser extent in placenta, pancreas, spleen, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine and colon. Very weak expression in lung, liver, thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes. In fetal highly expressed in brain and kidney and to a lesser extent in lung and liver. Ref.1
