INTRODUCTION
Beta-1,3-N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase 2 (B3GNT2) is a part of the beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase family which takes part in the synthesis of poly-N-acetyllactosamine. B3GNT2 is a type II transmembrane protein which prefers the substrate of lacto-N-neotetraose. B3GNT2 catalyzes the initiation and elongation of poly-N-acetyllactosamine chains and comprises the main polylactosamine synthase.

DESCRIPTION
B3GNT2 produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 375 amino acids (29-397a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 43.5kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 40-57kDa). B3GNT2 is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
