Function | Catalyzes the transfer of a ribitol 5-phosphate from CDP-L- ribitol to the ribitol 5-phosphate previously attached by FKTN/fukutin to the phosphorylated O-mannosyl trisaccharide (N-acetylgalactosamine- beta-3-N-acetylglucosamine-beta-4-(phosphate-6-)mannose), a carbohydrate structure present in alpha-dystroglycan (DAG1) (PubMed:26923585, PubMed:29477842, PubMed:31949166, PubMed:27194101). This constitutes the second step in the formation of the ribose 5- phosphate tandem repeat which links the phosphorylated O-mannosyl trisaccharide to the ligand binding moiety composed of repeats of 3- xylosyl-alpha-1,3-glucuronic acid-beta-1 (PubMed:25279699, PubMed:26923585, PubMed:29477842, PubMed:31949166, PubMed:27194101). |
Cellular Location | Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Secreted. Cell membrane, sarcolemma {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8CG64}. Rough endoplasmic reticulum. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8CG64}. Note=According to some studies the N- terminal hydrophobic domain is cleaved after translocation to the Golgi apparatus and the protein is secreted (PubMed:19900540). Localization at the cell membrane may require the presence of dystroglycan (By similarity). At the Golgi apparatus localizes to the middle-to-trans- cisternae, as assessed by MG160 colocalization. Detected in rough endoplasmic reticulum in myocytes (PubMed:17554798, PubMed:21886772) In general, mutants associated with severe clinical phenotypes are retained within the endoplasmic reticulum (PubMed:15213246) {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8CG64, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15213246, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17554798, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19900540, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21886772} |
Tissue Location | Expressed in the retina (at protein level) (PubMed:29416295). Expressed predominantly in skeletal muscle, placenta, and heart and relatively weakly in brain, lung, liver, kidney, and pancreas (PubMed:11592034). |

Background
This gene encodes a protein which is targeted to themedial Golgi apparatus and is necessary for posttranslationalmodification of dystroglycan. Mutations in this gene have beenassociated with congenital muscular dystrophy, mental retardation,and cerebellar cysts. Several alternatively spliced transcriptvariants of this gene have been described, but the full-lengthnature of some of these variants has not been determined. [providedby RefSeq].
