GBGT1

This gene encodes a glycosyltransferase that plays a role in the synthesis of Forssman glycolipid (FG), a member of the globoseries glycolipid family. Glycolipids such as FG form attachment sites for the binding of pathogens to cells; expression of this protein may determine host tropism to microorganisms. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Full Name
globoside alpha-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 1
Function
Has lost the ability to synthesize Forssman glycolipid antigen (FORS1/FG) (PubMed:10506200).

Might have acquired an alternative function in glycosphingolipid metabolism, but it remains to be established. It appears to have drifted more slowly than confirmed pseudogenes in the glycosyltransferase 6 family, suggesting that it has remained under evolutionary pressure.
