Primary Identifier | MGI:1888707 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 16 | NCBI Gene Number | 54613 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable N-acetyllactosaminide alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase activity and beta-galactoside (CMP) alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to interleukin-6; glycolipid biosynthetic process; and protein glycosylation. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Is expressed in dentate gyrus subgranular zone and early tubule. Orthologous to human ST3GAL6 (ST3 beta-galactoside alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase 6). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit modest impairment in leukocyte rolling and neutrophil recruitment. [provided by MGI curators] |
