ST6GALNAC5( Human )
ST6 N-acetylgalactosaminide alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase 5
Alias
SIAT7-E|SIAT7E|ST6GalNAcV
The protein encoded by this gene is a Golgi type II transmembrane glycosyltransferase. The encoded protein catalyzes the transfer of sialic acid to cell surface proteins to modulate cell-cell interactions. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016].
