General annotation (Comments)

Function

May transfer sialic acid through alpha-2,8-linkages to the alpha-2,3-linked and alpha-2,6-linked sialic acid of N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins and may be involved in PSA (polysialic acid) expression By similarity.

Pathway

Protein modification; protein glycosylation.

Subcellular location

Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein Potential.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 29 family.
