| ncRNA Symbol: | ST6GAL1 | | Full Name: | ST6 beta-galactoside alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase 1 | | Category: | mRNA | | Synonyms: | SIAT1|ST6GalI|ST6N | | Chromosome: | chr3 | | Strand: | + | | Coordinate: | | Start Site(bp): | 186930485 | End Site(bp): | 187078553 | | | Gene Summary: | This 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. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017] | | External Links: | |
