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. |Glyco transf 29| |beta-galactoside alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase activity| |sialyltransferase activity| |sialylation| |keratan sulfate biosynthetic process| |cellular response to interleukin-6| |keratan sulfate metabolic process| |response to interleukin-6| |oligosaccharide metabolic process| |glycolipid biosynthetic process| |glycosaminoglycan biosynthetic process| |mucopolysaccharide metabolic process| |aminoglycan biosynthetic process| |glycolipid metabolic process| |liposaccharide metabolic process| |membrane lipid biosynthetic process| |glycosaminoglycan metabolic process| |aminoglycan metabolic process| |sulfur compound biosynthetic process| |membrane lipid metabolic process| |protein glycosylation| |macromolecule glycosylation| |glycosylation| |glycoprotein biosynthetic process| |sulfur compound metabolic process| |glycoprotein metabolic process| |carbohydrate metabolic process| |lipid biosynthetic process| |Golgi membrane| |carbohydrate derivative biosynthetic process| |cellular lipid metabolic process| |oxoacid metabolic process| |cellular response to cytokine stimulus| |organic acid metabolic process| |carbohydrate derivative metabolic process| |response to cytokine| |lipid metabolic process| |organonitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process| |small molecule metabolic process| |macromolecule biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
