研究背景
This protein encoded by this gene transfers sulfate to the C-3 hydroxyl of terminal glucuronic acid of protein- and lipid-linked oligosaccharides. This protein was first identified as a sulfotransferase that acts on the human natural killer-1 (HNK-1) glycan; HNK-1 is a carbohydrate involved in neurodevelopment and synaptic plasticity.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011],function:Catalyzes the transfer of sulfate to position 3 of terminal glucuronic acid of both protein- and lipid-linked oligosaccharides. Participates in biosynthesis of HNK-1 carbohydrate structure, a sulfated glucuronyl-lactosaminyl residue carried by many neural recognition molecules, which is involved in cell interactions during ontogenetic development and in synaptic plasticity in the adult. May be indirectly involved in synapse plasticity of the hippocampus, via its role in HNK-1 biosynthesis.,similarity:Belongs to the sulfotransferase 2 family.,tissue specificity:In fetal tissues, it is predominantly expressed in brain, and weakly expressed in lung, kidney and liver. In adult, it is highly expressed in brain, testis, ovary, expressed at intermediate level in heart, pancreas, skeletal muscle, spleen and thymus, and weakly expressed in other tissues. In brain, it is expressed at higher level in the frontal lobe.,
