WSCD1 — WSC domain containing 1

WSCD1 belongs to a gene co-expression module in 1 of 30 SCUBA cell types. Each module groups genes that rise and fall together in that cell type; the genes it shares a module with are its closest co-expression partners there.

Function

Sialate:O-sulfotransferase which catalyzes 8-O-sulfation at the Sia-glycan level using 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) as a donor, forming 8-O-sulfated Sia (Sia8S)-glycans. Displays selectivity toward glycolipids such as GM1 gangliosides
