NDST1 N-deacetylase and N-sulfotransferase 1

Gene ID: 3340, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: HSST; NST1; MRT46

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the heparan sulfate/heparin GlcNAc N-deacetylase/ N-sulfotransferase family. The encoded enzyme is a type II transmembrane protein that resides in the Golgi apparatus. The encoded protein catalyzes the transfer of sulfate from 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate to nitrogen of glucosamine in heparan sulfate. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]
