Summary from NCBI RefSeq

[Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] The protein encoded by this gene is a putative transmembrane protein that is localized to the cis-Golgi compartment, where it may be involved in the glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan in skeletal muscle. The encoded protein is thought to be a glycosyltransferase and could play a role in brain development. Defects in this gene are a cause of Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD), Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS), limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2M (LGMD2M), and dilated cardiomyopathy type 1X (CMD1X). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

Summary text for additional MGI annotations

• Automated translation to GO terms of SwissProt keywords that describe Fktn indicates that it:
  • performs the following molecular functions:
    • transferase activity
  • is located in the following cellular components:
    • integral component of membrane
    • membrane
• Fktn has been associated with the Enzyme Commission numbers: 2.-.-.-, which implies that the gene product:
  • performs the following molecular functions:
    • Kdo transferase activity
