Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in fetal brain, kidney and heart and to a much lesser extent in adult heart and thymus. |
Post Translational Modifications | Autopolysialylated. Autopolysialylation is not a prerequisite for the polysialylation acitity, but enhances the polysialylation acitity. |
Function | Catalyzes the transfer of a sialic acid from a CMP-linked sialic acid donor onto a terminal alpha-2,3-, alpha-2,6-, or alpha-2,8-linked sialic acid of an N-linked glycan acceptor through alpha-2,8-linkages (Probable). Therefore, participates in polysialic acid synthesis on various sialylated N-acetyllactosaminyl oligosaccharides (alpha-2,3-, alpha-2,6-, or alpha-2,8-linked sialic acid), including NCAM1, NCAM1 N-glycans, FETUB N-glycans, and to a lesser extent sialylparagloboside (SPG) and AHSG, which does not require the initial addition of an alpha 2,8-sialic acid (Probable). However, does not exhibit sialic acid-polymerase activity. Catalyzes polysialic acid synthesis in the hippocampal on NCAM1 and supports neurite outgrowth. ST8SIA2-mediated polysialylation influences on oligodendrocyte differentiation and may promote the integrity of myelin and axons. |
