Summary: Predicted to enable Notch binding activity and polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein O-linked glycosylation and regulation of Notch signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus. Orthologous to human GALNT11 (polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 11) and GALNTL5 (polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase like 5).
