Background
The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the polycondensation of alpha-2,8-linked sialic
acid required for the synthesis of polysialic acid, a modulator of the adhesive properties of
neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM1). The encoded protein, which is a member of
glycosyltransferase family 29, is a type II membrane protein that may be present in the
Golgi apparatus. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this
gene
