OGT is the only known member to glycosylate polypeptides and it contains a long uncharacterized intervening sequence (~120 amino acids) in the middle of the catalytic region. Studies suggest that OGT contains a phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PIP3)binding domain. The most unusual feature of OGT is the intervening domain between the catalytic lobes, which is only found in metazoans. This polypeptide adopts a topologically novel fold with a seven-stranded <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_381/Ogt_structure/1'>beta</scene> sheet core stabilized by flanking alpha helices. There are two long unstructured loops for which electron density is missing.<ref> PMID:18288188</ref> | OGT is the only known member to glycosylate polypeptides and it contains a long uncharacterized intervening sequence (~120 amino acids) in the middle of the catalytic region.
