Glycosylation of proteins affects cell-cell interaction, interactions with the matrix, and the functions of intracellular molecules. ST6GALNAC1 transfers a sialic acid, N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc), in an alpha-2,6 linkage to O-linked GalNAc residues. The cancer-associated sialyl-Tn (sTn) antigen is formed by ST6GALNAC1-catalyzed sialylation of GalNAc residues on mucins (Ikehara et al., 1999 [PubMed 10536037]; Sewell et al., 2006 [PubMed 16319059]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
GeneCards Summary for ST6GALNAC1 Gene

An important paralog of this gene is ST6GALNAC2.
UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Summary for ST6GALNAC1 Gene
Protein sialyltransferase specifically expressed in goblet cells that plays a key role in intestinal host-commensal homeostasis (PubMed:35303419). Conjugates sialic acid with an alpha-2-6 linkage to N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) glycan chains linked to serine or threonine in glycoproteins (PubMed:10536037, 15466199, 16319059, 31719620, 35303419). Catalyzes the formation of the sialyl-Tn (S-Tn) antigen, an antigen found in intestinal goblet cells, as well as ulcerative colitis (UC) and various cancers (PubMed:15466199, 16319059, 31719620, 35303419). Protein sialylation in globlet cells is essential for mucus integrity and is required to protect the intestinal mucus against excessive bacterial proteolytic degradation (PubMed:35303419).
