GBGT1
globoside alpha-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 1 (FORS blood group) | A3GALNT, FS, MGC44848, UDP-GalNAc

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. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]

GBGT1 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating GBGT1 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for GBGT1. The Binding column indicates whether any binding evidence exists for this TF–gene pair (ChIP-seq or motif footprint peaks). The Mean coef is the average Perturb-seq regression coefficient across active gRNAs (positive = GBGT1 upregulated upon KD; negative = downregulated). The Outlier column indicates whether this gene is in the top or bottom 5% of all TF knockdown effects.

Elements linked to GBGT1

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of GBGT1, linked by TSS proximity or chromatin conformation (Multiome / HiCAR). Each element overlaps at least one TF ChIP-seq binding site — the TFs column shows how many distinct TFs bind that element.
