Comments
Comment typeDescription
FunctionInvolved in the synthesis of sialyl-paragloboside, a precursor of sialyl-Lewis X determinant. Has a alpha-2,3- sialyltransferase activity toward Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc structure on glycoproteins and glycolipids. Has a restricted substrate specificity, it utilizes Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc on glycoproteins, and neolactotetraosylceramide and neolactohexaosylceramide, but not lactotetraosylceramide, lactosylceramide or asialo-GM1 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
SimilarityBelongs to the glycosyltransferase 29 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationGolgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
