Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables beta-galactoside (CMP) alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase activity. Involved in ganglioside biosynthetic process via lactosylceramide. Acts upstream of or within protein glycosylation. Predicted to be located in Golgi cisterna membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; cranium; eye; and hemolymphoid system gland. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive intellectual developmental disorder 12 and developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 15. Orthologous to human ST3GAL3 (ST3 beta-galactoside alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase 3).
