ER membrane-associated UDP-GalNAc:beta-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 (B3GALNT2) transfers N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) from UDP-GalNAc to GlcNAc-Man-DAG1 via a 1-3 glycosidic bond (Hiruma et al. 2004, Yoshida-Moriguchi et al. 2013). Alpha-dystroglycan (DAG1) is required for binding laminin G-like domain-containing extracellular proteins with high affinity. Defects in B3GALNT2 can cause muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy congenital with brain and eye anomalies A11 (MDDGA11; MIM:615181), a hypoglycosylation defect resulting in a reduced ability of DAG1 to bind laminin and other extracellular matrix ligands. The disorder is characterised by dystroglycanopathy with muscle and brain anomalies (Stevens et al. 2013).
