High impact information on CHST12

  • Northern analysis demonstrated that the transcript for C4ST-1 is predominantly expressed in peripheral leukocytes and hematopoietic tissues while the C4ST-2 transcript is more widely expressed in various tissues [1].
  • Both C4ST-1 and C4ST-2, however, did not form 4, 6-di-O-sulfated N-acetylgalactosamine when chondroitin sulfate C was used as an acceptor [1].
 

Associations of CHST12 with chemical compounds

  • These results indicate C4ST-1 and C4ST-2 play complementary roles in chondroitin and dermatan sulfate synthesis in different tissues [1].
