Involvement of chondroitin sulfate synthase-3 (chondroitin synthase-2) in chondroitin polymerization through its interaction with chondroitin synthase-1 or chondroitin-polymerizing factor.
Previously, we have demonstrated that co-expression of ChSy-1 (chondroitin synthase-1), with ChPF (chondroitin-polymerizing factor) resulted in a marked augmentation of glycosyltransferase activities and the expression of the chondroitin polymerase activity of ChSy-1. These results prompted us to evaluate the effects of co-expression of the recently cloned CSS3 (chondroitin sulfate synthase-3) ...
متن کاملChondroitin sulfate
While some complementary and alternative techniques have been studied scientifically, high-quality data regarding safety, effectiveness, and mechanism of action are limited or controversial for most therapies. Whenever possible, it is recommended that practitioners be licensed by a recognized professional organization that adheres to clearly published standards. In addition, before starting a n...
متن کاملChondroitin Sulfate Synthase-2 Is Necessary for Chain Extension of Chondroitin Sulfate but Not Critical for Skeletal Development
Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a linear polysaccharide consisting of repeating disaccharide units of N-acetyl-D-galactosamine and D-glucuronic acid residues, modified with sulfated residues at various positions. Based on its structural diversity in chain length and sulfation patterns, CS provides specific biological functions in cell adhesion, morphogenesis, neural network formation, and cell divi...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of Chondroitin Sulfate
A microsomal preparation from chick embryo cartilage has been shown to catalyze the incorporation of sulfate-36S from 3’-phosphoadenosine 5’-phosphosulfate-3% into microsomal glycosaminoglycan. This enzyme preparation is the same preparation that previously has been shown to catalyze the formation of chondroitin (nonsulfated) from sugar nucleotide precursors. The microsomal sulfate acceptor app...

The role of phospholipids in the activity of UDP-D-galactose:D-xylose galactosyltransferase (galactosyltransferase I) from embryonic chick cartilage was investigated. Phospholipase C treatment of particulate galactosyltransferase I caused inactivation of this enzyme to the extent of 60 to 70% as well as hydrolysis of 75 to 80% of the membrane phospholipids. Addition of phospholipid restored act...
