It has a molecular mass of about 59 kDa. The enzyme catalyzes the addition of sialic acid to glycoproteins and glycolipids specifically attaching to N-acetylgalactosamine-containing substrates. ST6GALNAC6 is expressed mainly in tissues such as the brain liver and digestive tract where it influences various physiological and biochemical modifications of cellular surfaces.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nST6GALNAC6 mods glycan structures and affects signal transduction and cell-to-cell interactions. It functions as a part of the sialyltransferase enzyme family altering glycoproteins and glycolipids which impact molecular mechanisms including cellular adhesion and migration. These actions influence cell communication and pathogenesis processes; however it's not known to work as a component of a significant protein complex.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nST6GALNAC6 influences the glycoprotein biosynthesis process and the sialylation pathway. It modifies molecules involved in the synthesis and modification of O-linked glycans impacting several proteins for instance mucins due to its role in the sialylation of glycoproteins. The enzyme's activities intersect with pathways involving other key glycosylation enzymes such as ST6GAL1 indicating its integrated role in glycan biosynthesis and cellular signaling cascades.\u003cbr\u003e\nST6GALNAC6 contributes to the development of conditions like cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Its altered expression is linked with cancer-related mechanisms due to changes in cell adhesion and metastasis as sialylation impacts how cancer cells interact with their environments. Additionally researchers associate its dysregulation with cardiovascular pathologies through impacts on related proteins such as mucins highlighting its influence on the progression of these diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843926642857,"sku":"ab162319","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab162319","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
