Target Name
ST8SIA2
Target Full Name
Alpha-2,8-sialyltransferase 8B
Target Function
May transfer sialic acid through alpha-2,8-linkages to the alpha-2,3-linked and alpha-2,6-linked sialic acid of N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins and may be involved in PSA (polysialic acid) expression.
Target Subcellular Location
Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein.
Target Protein Families
Glycosyltransferase 29 family
Target Tissue Specificity
Highly expressed in fetal brain, kidney and heart and to a much lesser extent in adult heart and thymus.
Target Synonyms
ST8SIA2; SIAT8B; STX; Alpha-2,8-sialyltransferase 8B; EC 2.4.99.-; Sialyltransferase 8B; SIAT8-B; Sialyltransferase St8Sia II; ST8SiaII; Sialyltransferase X; STX
Target Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a type II membrane protein that is thought to catalyze the transfer of sialic acid from CMP-sialic acid to N-linked oligosaccharides and glycoproteins. The encoded protein may be found in the Golgi apparatus and may be involved in the production of polysialic acid, a modulator of the adhesive properties of neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM1). This protein is a member of glycosyltransferase family 29.
