ST6GalNAc2 Protein, Human, Recombinant (His)

Description: Alpha-N-Acetylgalactosaminide alpha-2,6-Sialyltransferase 2 (ST6GALNAC2) belongs to the glycosyltransferase 29 family that adds sialic acids to the non-reducing ends of glycoconjugates. At the cell surface, these modifications play roles in cell-cell and cell-substrate interactions, bacterial adhesion and protein targeting. ST6GALNAC2 is localized to the Golgi apparatus membrane. ST6GALNAC2 is highly expressed in lactating mammary glands and the adult testis, it is expressed at lower levels in the kidney. ST6GALNAC2 can catalyze 2,6-sialylation of the Tn antigen.
