A majority of malignancies showed moderate cytoplasmic and nuclear positivity. Thyroid cancers and malignant melanomas as well as malignant gliomas and ovarian cancers were strongly stained. Weak cytoplasmic staining was observed in a majority of malignant lymphomas and gastric cancers.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
B3GLCT (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
B3GALTL, B3Glc-T, B3GTL
Description
Beta 3-glucosyltransferase (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a beta-1,3-glucosyltransferase that transfers glucose to O-linked fucosylglycans on thrombospondin type-1 repeats (TSRs) of several proteins. The encoded protein is a type II membrane protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of Peters-plus syndrome (PPS).[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
