2.8.2.33

Accepted name:

N-acetylgalactosamine 4-sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase

Reaction:

(1) 3′-phospho-5′-adenylyl sulfate + [dermatan]-4-O-sulfo-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine = adenosine 3′,5′-bisphosphate + [dermatan]-4,6-di-O-sulfo-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine
(2) 3′-phospho-5′-adenylyl sulfate + [chondroitin]-4-O-sulfo-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine = adenosine 3′,5′-bisphosphate + [chondroitin]-4,6-di-O-sulfo-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine

Other name(s):

GalNAc4S-6ST; CHST15 (gene name); 3′-phosphoadenylyl-sulfate:[dermatan]-4-O-sulfo-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 6-O-sulfotransferase

Systematic name:

3′-phosphoadenylyl-sulfate:[dermatan]-4-O-sulfo-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 6-O-sulfonotransferase

Comments:

The enzyme is activated by divalent cations and reduced glutathione. The enzyme from human transfers sulfate to position 6 of both internal residues and non-reducing terminal GalNAc 4-sulfate residues of chondroitin sulfate and dermatan sulfate. Oligosaccharides derived from chondroitin sulfate also serve as acceptors but chondroitin sulfate E, keratan sulfate and heparan sulfate do not. Differs from EC 2.8.2.17, chondroitin 6-sulfotransferase, in being able to use both chondroitin and dermatan as effective substrates
