Protein name Alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminide alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase 6 (EC 2.4.99.-) (GalNAc alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase VI) (ST6GalNAc VI) (ST6GalNAcVI) (hST6GalNAc VI) (Sialyltransferase 7F) (SIAT7-F)
Protein function Transfers the sialyl group (N-acetyl-alpha-neuraminyl or NeuAc) from CMP-NeuAc onto glycoproteins and glycolipids, forming an alpha-2,6-linkage. Produces branched type disialyl structures by transfer of a sialyl group onto the GalNAc or GlcNAc r
