GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SLC35A1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
CMPST, hCST
Description
Solute carrier family 35 (CMP-sialic acid transporter), member A1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is found in the membrane of the Golgi apparatus, where it transports nucleotide sugars into the Golgi. One such nucleotide sugar is CMP-sialic acid, which is imported into the Golgi by the encoded protein and subsequently glycosylated. Defects in this gene are a cause of congenital disorder of glycosylation type 2F (CDG2F). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
