ST8SIA2あるいはST8 α-N-アセチルノイラミニドα-2,8-シアリルトランスフェラーゼ2は、CMPシアリル酸からシアリル酸を、主にポリシアル酸と呼ばれるα2,8-結合シアリル酸ホモポリマー合成をする神経細胞接着分子(NCAM)上の糖タンパク質のNeuAcα2→3-RおよびNeuAcα2→6-R構造に転移する。ST8SIA2はSTX、 SIAT8B、ST8Sia-IIとも知られる。ST8SIA2はシナプス細胞接着分子(SynCAM1)上のポリシアリル酸も合成する。ST8SIA2欠損マウスは、苔状線維の形態変化および不安感の消失を呈す。ST8SIA2およびST8SIA4の二重欠損マウスではポリシアル酸がなく新生児早期で死亡する。
