General description
Sialyltransferases belongs to the glycosyltransferases family with the capability of catalyzing the transfer of N-acetylneuraminic acid residues. It is a multifunctional enzyme with α-2,3-sialyltransferase activity, α-2,6-sialyltransferase activity, sialidase activity, and trans-sialidase activity. It has a molar mass of 46.4 kDa, with pI, pH being 5.94 and 7.5-8.5 respectively.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Sialyltransferase catalyzes the transfer of Neu5Ac from CMP-Neu5Ac as a donor substrate to the β-D-galactosyl-1,4-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl termini of acceptor molecules including glycoproteins, glycolipids, and oligosaccharides.
Sialyltransferase transfers Neu5Ac from CMP-Neu5Ac to the galactosyl terminus of acceptor molecules including glycoproteins, glycolipids, and oligosaccharides.
Unit Definition
One unit will catalyze the formation of 1.0 μmol Neu-5-Ac-α-2,3LacMU from CMP-Neu-5-Ac and Lac-β−OMU per minute at 37 °C at pH 8.0.
Physical form
Lyophilized powder containing Tris-HCl and NaCl
Preparation Note
Reconstitute the lyophilized powder with a volume of water in the range of 0.1 mL to 1 mL, to give a concentration in the range of 1 unit/mL (1 mL volume of water) to 10 units/mL (0.1 mL volume of water).
Analysis Note
Enzymatic activity assays performed in Tris-HCl buffer (100 mM, pH 8.0) containing CMP-Neu-5Ac (1 mM) and Lac-β−OMU (1 mM) at 37°C for 30 min and analyzed using HPLC with a fluorescence detector (excitation at 325 nm and emission at 372 nm).

Our previous studies suggest that the α2,3sialylated T-antigen (NeuAcα2,3Galβ1,3GalNac-) and associated glycan structures are likely to be elevated during cancer. An easy and reliable strategy to label mucinous glycans that contain such carbohydrates can enable the identification of novel glycoproteins

Sialyltransferases are a family of glycosyltransferases that catalyze the transfer of N-acetylneuraminic acid residues from cytidine monophosphate N-acetylneuraminic acid (CMP-NeuAc) as a donor substrate to the carbohydrate groups of glycoproteins and glycolipids as acceptor substrates.

Glycosyltransferases were initially considered to be specific for a single glycosyl donor and acceptor, which led to the one enzyme-one linkage concept. Subsequent observations have refuted the theory of absolute enzymatic specificity by describing the transfer of analogs of some nucleoside mono- or diphosphate sugar donors.
