Gene information for SLC35A1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10559
Official gene symbolSLC35A1
Full namesolute carrier family 35 (CMP-sialic acid transporter), member A1
Aliases,CDG2F,CMPST,CST,FLJ76955,hCST,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is found in the membrane of the Golgi apparatus, where it transports nucleotide sugars into the Golgi. One such nucleotide sugar is CMP-sialic acid, which is imported into the Golgi by the encoded protein and subsequently glycosylated. Defects in this gene are a cause of congenital disorder of glycosylation type 2F (CDG2F). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
