abstract：:A number of glycosyltransferases have been identified and biologically characterized in cancer cells, yet their exact pathophysiological functions are largely unknown. Here, we report the critical role of β1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase II (B3GALNT2), which transfers N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) in a β1,3 lin...
