additional information the enzyme uses the LacdiNAc structure (GalNAcbeta1,4GlcNAc) as a better acceptor substrate than the type II (Galbeta1-4GlcNAc) disaccharide. The enzyme's efficiency is improved when the acceptor substrate is provided as a free oligosaccharide rather than as a protein-bound oligosaccharide. No activity with alpha1-acidglycoprotein and Galbeta1–3GlcNAc-octyl Bos taurus ?

Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Bos taurus ST6Gal II gene is upregulated in cells stimulated by interleukin-6, whereas interleukin-1 and TNFalpha treatments have no effect on the expression of ST6Gal II. Inflammatory response induced by interleukin-6 treatment provokes an overexpression of ST6Gal II at 24 h and 48 h of treatment, its expression level in the treated cells is 2.5- and 5.6fold higher than in the control, respectively up
