CHST7 belongs to the sulfotransferase family. Sulfotransferases generate sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) moities during chondroitin sulfate biosynthesis. They create considerable structural diversity among chondroitin sulfates by transferring sulfate with remarkable specificity for the underlying oligosaccharide substrate. This protein mainly transfers sulfate to N-acetylgalactosamine. The regulated expression of each member of the family may be an important determinant of sulfated GAGs expression and the associated function of chondroitin sulfates as regulators of many biologic processes.Shipped at 4°C.
