Associations of ST6GAL1 with chemical compounds

  • These results indicate that alpha 2,6-ST expression is a critical regulatory step in the formation of the Ags that are recognized by these mAb, and that an alpha 2,6-linked sialic acid residue is an essential component of each Ag [22].
  • A single gene, SIAT1, encodes ST6Gal I, the sialyltransferase that mediates transfer of alpha2,6-linked sialic acids to Galbeta1, 4GlcNAc termini of N-linked glycoproteins [19].
  • The LBSA content and sialyltransferase activity were the highest in the GD group (164 +/- 4.44 versus 120 +/- 2.00 nmoL/g, p = 0.005 and 1625 +/- 283.5 versus 324 +/- 54.2 cpm/mg of protein, p < 0.005 compared to control group C) [23].
  • Using tumor tissues fixed in formaldehyde, amplification of genomic DNA of Fuc-T and ST was performed by PCR and correlated with sLe(x) staining and patient prognosis [24].
  • On mature thymocytes, S. nigra agglutinin appeared to bind primarily to the cell-surface glycoprotein CD45; since only the mature thymocytes expressed the CD45RA isoform, while both mature and immature populations expressed the CD45R0 isoform, CD45RA may be a preferred substrate for ST6N [25].
  • Preventing ST6Gal-I down-regulation (and therefore integrin hyposialylation), through BACE1 inhibition or ST6Gal-I constitutive overexpression, eliminates VCAM-1 binding [26].

Other interactions of ST6GAL1

  • alpha-2,3-Sialyltransferase type 3N and alpha-1,3-fucosyltransferase type VII are related to sialyl Lewis(x) synthesis and patient survival from lung carcinoma [24].
  • Since expression of the alpha 2,6-ST protein was shown to be limited to the Golgi apparatus, the cell-surface HB-6 Ag was demonstrated to be the product of alpha 2,6-ST activity [22].
  • There was a positive correlation between the increased sialyltransferase-1 mRNA level and the TSH-receptor antibody titer determined by the TRAK test [23].
  • RNase protection analysis of different cell types showed that the transcript corresponding to the alpha 2,6-sialyltransferase cDNA isolated from a B-cell library resided only in mature B cells [31].
  • Extracts from L cells transfected with ST3Gal VI cDNA in a expression vector and a fusion protein with protein A showed an enzyme activity of alpha2, 3-sialyltransferase toward Galbeta1,4GlcNAc structure on glycoproteins and glycolipids [32].
