Gene information for St6gal1 (Mus musculus)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID20440
Official gene symbolSt6gal1
Full namebeta galactoside alpha 2,6 sialyltransferase 1
AliasesAW742324,MGC116663,Siat1,St6gal,St6galI
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of glycosyltransferase family 29. The encoded protein is a type II membrane protein that catalyzes the transfer of sialic acid from CMP-sialic acid to galactose-containing substrates. The protein, which is normally found in the Golgi but can be proteolytically processed to a soluble form, is involved in the generation of the cell-surface carbohydrate determinants and differentiation antigens HB-6, CD75, and CD76. This gene has been incorrectly referred to as CD75. [provided by RefSeq]
