2.4.3.3 |
| Accepted name: |
α-N-acetylgalactosaminide α-2,6-sialyltransferase |
| Reaction: |
CMP-N-acetylneuraminate + glycano-(1→3)-(N-acetyl-α-D-galactosaminyl)-glycoprotein = CMP + glycano-[(2→6)-α-N-acetylneuraminyl]-(N-acetyl-D-galactosaminyl)-glycoprotein |
| Systematic name: |
CMP-N-acetylneuraminate:glycano-1,3-(N-acetyl-α-D-galactosaminyl)-glycoprotein α-2,6-N-acetylneuraminyltransferase |
| Comments: |
N-acetyl-α-D-galactosamine linked to threonine or serine is also an acceptor, when substituted at the 3-position. |
