GALNT14 (EC 2.4.1.41) belongs to a large subfamily of glycosyltransferases residing in the Golgi apparatus. GALNT enzymes catalyze the first step in the O-glycosylation of mammalian proteins by transferring N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) to peptide substrates.[supplied by OMIM]<ref name="entrez" />

SNPs on GALNT14 have been shown to be associated to the chemotherapy responses of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.<ref name="pmid21635146">{{cite journal |vauthors=Liang KH, Lin CC, Yeh CT | title = GALNT14 SNP as a potential predictor of response to combination chemotherapy using 5-FU, mitoxantrone and cisplatin in advanced HCC. | journal = Pharmacogenomics | volume = 12 | issue = 7 | pages = 1061–73 |date=Jul 2011 | pmid = 21635146 | doi=10.2217/pgs.11.43}}</ref><ref name="pmid23959947">{{cite journal |vauthors=Yeh CT, Liang KH, Lin CC, Chang ML, Hsu CL, Hung CF | title = A single nucleotide polymorphism on the GALNT14 gene as an effective predictor of response to chemotherapy in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. | journal = Int J Cancer | volume = 134 | issue = 5 | pages = 1214–1224 |date=Mar 2014 | pmid = 23959947 | doi=10.1002/ijc.28439| s2cid = 1262943 | doi-access = free }}</ref><ref name="pmid25295111">{{cite journal |vauthors=Liang KH, Yang PC, Yeh CT | title = Genotyping the GALNT14 gene by joint analysis of two linked single nucleotide polymorphisms using liver tissues for clinical and geographical comparisons.| journal = Oncol Lett | pmid = 25295111 | doi=10.3892/ol.2014.2507 | volume=8 | issue = 5| date=Nov 2014 | pages=2215–2220 | pmc=4186602}}</ref><ref name="pmid24940508">{{cite journal |vauthors=Lin WR, Hsu CW, Chen YC, Chang ML, Liang KH, Huang YH, Yeh CT | title = GALNT14 genotype, α-fetoprotein and therapeutic side effects predict post-chemotherapy survival in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.| journal = Mol Clin Oncol | pmid = 24940508 | doi=10.3892/mco.2014.294 | volume=2 | issue = 4| date=Jul 2014 | pages=630–640 | pmc=4051573}}</ref>
