Gene information for ST3GAL6 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10402
Official gene symbolST3GAL6
Full nameST3 beta-galactoside alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase 6
Aliases,SIAT10,ST3GALVI,
Gene summarySialyltransferases, such as ST3GAL6, catalyze the transfer of sialic acid from cytidine 5-prime monophospho-N-acetylneuraminic acid (CMP-NeuAc) to terminal positions of glycoprotein and glycolipid carbohydrate groups. Terminal NeuAc residues are key determinants of carbohydrate structures, such as the sialyl-Lewis X determinants, and are widely distributed in many cell types.[supplied by OMIM]
