High impact information on Chst3

  • A nearly complete removal of N-glycans of the recombinant C6ST-1 by peptide N-glycosidase F increased the C6ST activity but decreased the KSST activity [1].
  • Treatment with tunicamycin of COS-7 cells transfected with C6ST-1 cDNA totally abolished production of the active C6ST-1 [1].
  • Wild-type recombinant C6ST-1 showed a typical Golgi localization, whereas M-4 recombinant C6ST-1, in which the fourth N-glycosylation site was deleted, colocalized with calnexin, an endoplasmic reticulum-resident protein [1].
  • Chondroitin 6-sulfotransferase (C6ST) catalyzes the transfer of sulfate to position 6 of the N-acetylgalactosamine residue of chondroitin [2].
  • Despite the disappearance of chondroitin sulfate D structure, brain development was normal in the C6st(-/-) mice [2].
 

Biological context of Chst3

 

Anatomical context of Chst3

  • Further analysis revealed that the number of CD62L(+)CD44(low) T lymphocytes corresponding to naive T lymphocytes in the spleen of 5-6-week-old C6st(-/-) mice was significantly decreased, whereas those in other secondary lymphoid organs were unchanged [2].
