Function |
Involved in the biosynthesis of ganglioside GD1A from GM1B. Transfers CMP-NeuAc with an alpha-2,6-linkage to GalNAc residue on NeuAc-alpha-2,3-Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc of glycoproteins and glycolipids. ST6GalNAcIII prefers glycolipids to glycoproteins (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
