| Function | Mannosyltransferase that operates in the biosynthetic pathway of dolichol-linked oligosaccharides, the glycan precursors employed in protein asparagine (N)-glycosylation. The assembly of dolichol-linked oligosaccharides begins on the cytosolic side of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and finishes in its lumen. The sequential addition of sugars to dolichol pyrophosphate produces dolichol-linked oligosaccharides containing fourteen sugars, including two GlcNAcs, nine mannoses and three glucoses. Once assembled, the oligosaccharide is transferred from the lipid to nascent proteins by oligosaccharyltransferases. Catalyzes, on the cytoplasmic face of the endoplasmic reticulum, the addition of the second and third mannose residues to the dolichol-linked oligosaccharide chain, to produce Man3GlcNAc(2)-PP-dolichol core oligosaccharide. Man3GlcNAc(2)-PP- dolichol is a substrate for ALG11, the following enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway (PubMed:12684507, PubMed:35136180). While both alpha 1,3 and alpha 1,6 linkages are possible, the sequential addition of alpha 1,3 followed by alpha 1,6 is probably the preferred route (PubMed:35136180). |
| Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass membrane protein. Note=Active on cytoplasmic side of endoplasmic reticulum membrane. |

Background
This gene encodes a member of the glycosyltransferase 1 family. The encoded protein acts as an alpha 1,3 mannosyltransferase, mannosylating Man(2)GlcNAc(2)-dolichol diphosphate and Man(1)GlcNAc(2)-dolichol diphosphate to form Man(3)GlcNAc(2)-dolichol diphosphate. Defects in this gene have been associated with congenital disorder of glycosylation type Ih (CDG-Ii). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
