In enzymology, a lactosylceramide alpha-2,6-N-sialyltransferase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction :CMP-N-acetylneuraminate + beta-D-galactosyl-1,4-beta-D-glucosylceramide CMP + alpha-N-acetylneuraminyl-2,6-beta-D-galactosyl-1,4-beta-D- glucosylceramide Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are CMP-N-acetylneuraminate and beta-D-galactosyl-1,4-beta-D-glucosylceramide, whereas its 3 products are CMP, alpha-N-acetylneuraminyl-2,6-beta-D-galactosyl-1,4-beta-D-, and glucosylceramide. This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those glycosyltransferases that do not transfer hexosyl or pentosyl groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is CMP-N-acetylneuraminate:lactosylceramide alpha-2,6-N-acetylneuraminyltransferase. Other names in common use include cytidine monophosphoacetylneuraminate-lactosylceramide, sialyltransferase, CMP-acetylneuraminate-lactosylceramide-sialyltransferase, CMP-N-acetylneuraminic acid:lactosylceramide sialyltransferase, CMP-sialic acid:lactosylceramide sialyltransferase, cytidine monophosphoacetylneuraminate-lactosylceramide, and sialyltransferase. ==References== * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lactosylceramide alpha-2,6-N-sialyltransferase」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
