In this analysis, elevated serum protein levels of Alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminide alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase 1 (ST6GALNAC1/ST6) and Alpha-(1,3)-fucosyltransferase (FUT5) were highly correlated with patients with early-stage AMD [128]. The gene discussed is CD82; the disease is age-related macular degeneration.
