About ST8SIA1

Cytogenetic location: 12p12.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:22,193,391-22,334,707 (from NCBI)

This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 1.5), adrenal (RPKM 0.7) and 19 other tissues.

Summary

Gangliosides are membrane-bound glycosphingolipids containing sialic acid. Ganglioside GD3 is known to be important for cell adhesion and growth of cultured malignant cells. The protein encoded by this gene is a type II membrane protein that catalyzes the transfer of sialic acid from CMP-sialic acid to GM3 to produce gangliosides GD3 and GT3. The encoded protein may be found in the Golgi apparatus and is a member of Glycosyltransferase family 29. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.
