ST6GalNAc-I is a CMP-sialic acid, N-acetylgalactosaminide α2-6-sialyltransferase (GalNAcα2-6-sialyltransferase), that transfers sialic acid from CMP-sialic acid (CMP-Sia) to the N-acetylgalactosamine residues of glycoconjugates through an α2,6-linkage. Like other sialyltransferases, ST6GalNAc-I exhibits type II membrane protein topology and is classified into CAZy glycosyltransferase family 29 (Coutinho et al. 2003).
