Biochem/physiol Actions

ST6GALNAC6 [ST6 (alpha-N-acetyl-neuraminyl-2,3-beta-galactosyl-1,3)-N-acetylgalactosaminide alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase 6] gene encodes a single-pass type II membrane protein that belongs to glycosyltransferase 29 family and is primarily expressed in kidney, in proximal tubule epithelial cells and colon cell lines. It plays a crucial role in biosynthesis of DSGG (disialylgalactosylgloboside) from MSGG (monosialylgalactosylgloboside) in normal and malignant kidney. It is also involved in the synthesis of disialyl Lewis a (Lea).
