Term Name:	lactosylceramide alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase activity
Synonyms:	CMP-acetylneuraminate-lactosylceramide-sialyltransferase, cytidine monophosphoacetylneuraminate-lactosylceramide alpha2,3- sialyltransferase activity, cytidine monophosphoacetylneuraminate-lactosylceramide sialyltransferase, ganglioside GM3 synthase activity, GM3 synthase activity
Definition:	Catalysis of the reaction: cytolipin-H + CMP-N-acetylneuraminate = alpha-N-acetylneuraminyl-2,3-beta-D-galactosyl-1,4-beta-D-glucosylceramide + CMP. Alpha-N-acetylneuraminyl-2,3-beta-D-galactosyl-1,4-beta-D-glucosylceramide is also known as GM3.
