Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptioncgt-3 encodes a transmembrane protein that is one of three C. elegans ceramide glucosyltransferases; by homology, CGT-3 is predicted to localize to the Golgi membrane and catalyze the transfer of glucose from UDP-glucose to ceramide to synthesize glucosylceramide, a glycosphingolipid precursor; although cgt-3 mutant worms show no obvious defects, animals doubly mutant for cgt-3 and cgt-1 arrest development in the early L1 larval stage, showing impaired feeding ability; in addition, cgt-3;cgt-1 and cgt-3;cgt-1;cgt-2 mutant animals show reduced glucosylceramide levels; a CGT-3::GFP reporter fusion is expressed in pharyngeal tissues, the intestine, the pharyngeal-intestinal and intestinal-rectal valves, the rectal gland cells, head mesodermal cells and additional unidentified head cells; cgt-3 expression in mouse GM95 cells, deficient in glucosylceramide due to a defect in glucosylceramide synthase, confirms that CGT-3 has ceramide glucosyltransferase activity.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00032934

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable ceramide glucosyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including glucosylceramide biosynthetic process; regulation of mesodermal cell fate specification; and regulation of protein localization to basolateral plasma membrane. Located in plasma membrane. Expressed in several structures, including germ line; pharyngeal muscle cell; pharyngeal-intestinal valve; rectal gland cell; and rectal valve cell. Is an ortholog of human UGCG (UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
