Gene: ST8 alpha-N-acetyl-neuraminide alpha-2,8-sialyltransferase 3
Gene ID: 195737
Symbol: ST8SIA3
Species: 1000
Description: May transfer sialic acid through alpha-2,8-linkages to alpha-2,3-linked and alpha-2,8-linked sialic acid of N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins and glycolipids. It can form polysialic acid in vitro directly on alpha-2,3-, alpha-2,6-, or alpha-2,8-linked sialic acid.
