Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human ST6GALNAC6
Application
Anti-ST6GALNAC6 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 0.5μg/mL.
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).

Biosynthesis of disialyl Lewis a (Lea) was analyzed using previously cloned ST6GalNAc V and ST6GalNAc VI, which were responsible for the synthesis of alpha-series gangliosides. Among lactotetraosylceramide (Lc4), neolactotetraosylceramide, and their sialyl forms, only sialyl Lc4 was sialylated with ST6GalNAc

Although disialyl glycosphingolipids such as GD3 and GD2 have been considered to be associated with malignant tumours, whether branched-type disialyl glycosphingolipids show such an association is not well understood. We investigated the sialyltransferases responsible for the biosynthesis of DSGG (disialylgalactosylgloboside)
