ST6GAL1 and breast carcinoma: Overall, the data describe highly variable expression of ST6GAL1 among breast cancer cell lines but also discordance between measurable enzymatic activity, ST6GAL1 protein, and mRNA levels among cells lines might be attributed to a poorly understood and largely unexplored complex differential kinetics of gene expression, protein translation, and longevity of the ST6GAL1 protein within the cells.
