Fringe-like. The drosophila protein fringe (FNG) is a glucosaminyltransferase that controls the response of the Notch receptor to specific ligands. FNG is localized to the Golgi apparatus (not secreted as previously thought). Modification of Notch occurs through glycosylation by FNG. The xenopus homolog, lunatic fringe, has been implicated in a variety of functions.
Galactosyltransferase. This family includes the galactosyltransferases UDP-galactose:2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose3beta-galactosyltransferase and UDP-Gal:beta-GlcNAc beta 1,3-galactosyltranferase. Specific galactosyltransferases transfer galactose to GlcNAc terminal chains in the synthesis of the lacto-series oligosaccharides types 1 and 2.
PAN domain. The PAN domain contains a conserved core of three disulphide bridges. In some members of the family there is an additional fourth disulphide bridge the links the N and C termini of the domain. The domain is found in diverse proteins, in some they mediate protein-protein interactions, in others they mediate protein-carbohydrate interactions.
