Molecular cloning and expression of a novel chondroitin 6-O-sulfotransferase.
A novel human chondroitin 6-O-sulfotransferase, designated C6ST-2, was identified by BLAST analysis of expressed sequence tag using the sequence of a previously described human chondroitin 6-O-sulfotransferase (C6ST-1) as a probe. The new cDNA sequence revealed an open reading frame coding for a protein of 486 amino acids with a type II transmembrane protein topology. The amino acid sequence di...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and expression of a novel human beta-Gal-3-O-sulfotransferase that acts preferentially on N-acetyllactosamine in N- and O-glycans.
A novel cDNA-encoding galactose 3-O-sulfotransferase was cloned by screening the expressed sequence tag data base using the previously cloned cDNA encoding a galactosyl ceramide 3-O-sulfotransferase, which we term Gal3ST-1. The newly isolated cDNA encodes a novel 3-O-sulfotransferase, termed Gal3ST-3, that acts exclusively on N-acetyllactosamine present in N-glycans and core2-branched O-glycans...

Chondroitin sulfates are linear sulfated polysaccharides called glycosaminoglycans. They are important nutraceutical and pharmaceutical products that are biosynthesized through the action of chondroitin sulfotransferases on either an unsulfated chondroitin or a dermatan polysaccharide precursor. While the enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of chondroitin sulfates are well known, the cloning e...
متن کاملExpression of N-Acetylgalactosamine 4-Sulfate 6-O-Sulfotransferase Involved in Chondroitin Sulfate Synthesis Is Responsible for Pulmonary Metastasis
Chondroitin sulfate (CS) containing E-disaccharide units, glucuronic acid-N-acetylgalactosamine(4, 6-O-disulfate), at surfaces of tumor cells plays a key role in tumor metastasis. However, the molecular mechanism of the metastasis involving the CS chain-containing E-units is not fully understood. In this study, to clarify the role of E-units in the metastasis and to search for potential molecul...
متن کاملChondroitin 4-O-sulfotransferase-1 modulates Wnt-3a signaling through control of E disaccharide expression of chondroitin sulfate.
Wnt-3a is a ligand that activates the beta-catenin-dependent pathway in Wnt signaling, which is implicated in numerous physiological events such as morphogenesis. So far, heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycans have been highlighted as a low affinity receptor for morphogens containing Wnts. Here we show the importance of chondroitin sulfate (CS) proteoglycans in the efficient signaling of Wnt-3a and...
