| Accepted Name |
| Beta-galactoside alpha-(2,6)-sialyltransferase. |
| Alternative Name(s) |
| Beta-galactosamide alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase. |
| Beta-galactoside alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase. |
| CMP-N-acetylneuraminate-beta-galactosamide-alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase. |
| Lactosylceramide alpha-2,6-N-sialyltransferase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
| CMP-N-acetyl-beta-neuraminate + beta-D-galactosyl-R <=> CMP + N-acetyl-alpha-neuraminyl-(2->6)-beta-D-galactosyl-R |
| Comment(s) |
- The enzyme acts on the terminal non-reducing beta-D-galactosyl residue of the oligosaccharide moiety of glycoproteins and glycolipids.
- Formerly EC 2.4.99.11.
