The cloned cDNA encodes a 341-amino acid protein containing a single transmembrane domain at its N-terminal region, suggesting that the protein has a type II transmembrane topology. The sequence of alpha 2,8-sialyltransferase showed a high level of similarity with other sialyltransferases at two conserved regions typical in the sialyltransferase family. Transfected cells containing the cloned cDNA expressed GD3 ganglioside on the cell surface, which was detectable with specific anti-GD3 antibody by immunofluorescence and immunostaining after separation of isolated glycolipids on thin-layer chromatography. The cDNA hybridized to a single mRNA species of 2.4 kb in melanoma cells. This sialyltransferase is distinctive in catalyzing the formation of the alpha 2-8 linkage of sialic acids."xsd:string |
