    basic FUNCTION
  • putative integral constituent of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane involved in O-mannosylation of proteins (essential to the alpha- dystroglycan stability)
  • POMT1 and POMT2 catalyzes the initial step of O-mannosyl glycan biosynthesis
  • POMT1 and POMT2 have discrete functions since the effect of amino acid substitutions on enzymatic activity are different
  • with POMT2, are responsible for the catalysis of the first step in O-mannosyl glycan synthesis

  • homozygous Pomt1(-/-) mice suffer developmental arrest around embryonic day (E) 7.5 and die between E7.5 and E9.5 with defects in the formation of Reichert's membrane
  • Amino acid substitution in POMT1 abolished enzymatic activity
