About St8sia6

Summary

Predicted to enable alpha-N-acetylneuraminate alpha-2,8-sialyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in ganglioside biosynthetic process; glycoprotein metabolic process; and oligosaccharide metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including blastocyst hatching; glycolipid biosynthetic process; and protein O-linked glycosylation. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Orthologous to human ST8SIA6 (ST8 alpha-N-acetyl-neuraminide alpha-2,8-sialyltransferase 6).
