Genes affected

ST6GALNAC2 (HGNC:10867): (ST6 N-acetylgalactosaminide alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase 2) ST6GALNAC2 belongs to a family of sialyltransferases that add sialic acids to the nonreducing ends of glycoconjugates. At the cell surface, these modifications have roles in cell-cell and cell-substrate interactions, bacterial adhesion, and protein targeting (Samyn-Petit et al., 2000 [PubMed 10742600]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.536A>G (p.N179S) alteration is located in exon 5 (coding exon 5) of the ST6GALNAC2 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 536, causing the asparagine (N) at amino acid position 179 to be replaced by a serine (S). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
