Sulfation of N-acetylglucosamine by chondroitin 6-sulfotransferase 2 (GST-5).
Based on sequence homology with a previously cloned human GlcNAc 6-O-sulfotransferase, we have identified an open reading frame (ORF) encoding a novel member of the Gal/GalNAc/GlcNAc 6-O-sulfotransferase (GST) family termed GST-5 on the human X chromosome (band Xp11). GST-5 has recently been characterized as a novel GalNAc 6-O-sulfotransferase termed chondroitin 6-sulfotransferase-2 (Kitagawa, ...
متن کاملEnzymatic sulfation of galactose residue of keratan sulfate by chondroitin 6-sulfotransferase.
We have previously found that the purified chondroitin 6-sulfotransferase (C6ST), which transfers sulfate from 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) to position 6 of N-acetylgalactosamine in chondroitin, catalyzed the sulfation of keratan sulfate, and that both the C6ST activity and the keratan sulfate sulfotransferase (KSST) activity were expressed in COS-7 cells when C6ST cDNA was tran...
متن کاملChondroitin 4-O-sulfotransferase-2 regulates the number of chondroitin sulfate chains initiated by chondroitin N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-1.
Recently, it has been shown that a deficiency in ChGn-1 (chondroitin N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-1) reduced the numbers of CS (chondroitin sulfate) chains, leading to skeletal dysplasias in mice. Although these results indicate that ChGn-1 regulates the number of CS chains, the mechanism mediating this regulation is not clear. ChGn-1 is thought to initiate CS biosynthesis by transferring ...
متن کاملSulfation of the galactose residues in the glycosaminoglycan-protein linkage region by recombinant human chondroitin 6-O-sulfotransferase-1.
6-O-Sulfated galactose residues have been demonstrated in the glycosaminoglycan-protein linkage region GlcUAbeta1-3Galbeta1-3Galbeta1-4Xylbeta1-O-Ser isolated from shark cartilage chondroitin 6-sulfate (Sugahara, K., Ohi, Y., Harada, T., de Waard, P., and Vliegenthart, J. F. G. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 6027-6035). In this study, we investigated whether a recombinant human chondroitin 6-sulfot...
متن کاملChondroitin 4-O-sulfotransferase-1 regulates the chain length of chondroitin sulfate in co-operation with chondroitin N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-2.
Previously, we demonstrated that sog9 cells, a murine L cell mutant, are deficient in the expression of C4ST (chondroitin 4-O-sulfotransferase)-1 and that they synthesize fewer and shorter CS (chondroitin sulfate) chains. These results suggested that C4ST-1 regulates not only 4-O-sulfation of CS, but also the length and amount of CS chains; however, the mechanism remains unclear. In the present...
