Caenorhabditis elegans Enables protein N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity; protein O-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity; and protein serine/threonine phosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including dauer larval development; glycogen metabolic process; and lipid storage. Located in nucleus and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Expressed in several structures, including hypodermal cell; intestine; neurons; and somatic cell. Used to study type 2 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in aortic valve stenosis and non-syndromic X-linked intellectual disability 106. Is an ortholog of human OGT (O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) transferase).
