Function Beta-1,4-glucuronyltransferase involved in O- mannosylation of alpha-dystroglycan (DAG1). Transfers a glucuronic acid (GlcA) residue onto a xylose (Xyl) acceptor to produce the glucuronyl-beta-1,4-xylose-beta disaccharide primer, which is further elongated by LARGE, during synthesis of phosphorylated O- mannosyl glycan (PubMed:25279699, PubMed:25279697). Phosphorylated O-mannosyl glycan is a carbohydrate is a carbohydrate structure present in alpha-dystroglycan (DAG1), which is required for binding laminin G-like domain-containing extracellular proteins with high affinity (PubMed:25279699, PubMed:25279697). Required for axon guidance; via its function in O-mannosylation of alpha- dystroglycan (DAG1) (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8BWP8, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19587235, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23359570, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25279697, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25279699}.
Subcellular Location Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19587235, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23359570, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25279699}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23359570}. Note=Localizes near the trans-Golgi apparatus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25279699}.
Tissue Specificity In the adult, highly expressed in heart, brain, skeletal muscle and kidney and to a lesser extent in placenta, pancreas, spleen, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine and colon. Very weak expression in lung, liver, thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes. In fetal highly expressed in brain and kidney and to a lesser extent in lung and liver. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9405606}.
