CSGALNACT1 | Chondroitin sulfate N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 1; Transfers 1,4-N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) from UDP-GalNAc to the non-reducing end of glucuronic acid (GlcUA). Required for addition of the first GalNAc to the core tetrasaccharide linker and for elongation of chondroitin chains. Important role in chondroitin chain biosynthesis in cartilage formation and subsequent endochondral ossification. Moreover, is involved in the metabolism of aggrecan (By similarity). (532 aa) | ||||
EXTL2 | Processed exostosin-like 2; Glycosyltransferase required for the biosynthesis of heparan- sulfate and responsible for the alternating addition of beta-1-4-linked glucuronic acid (GlcA) and alpha-1-4-linked N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) units to nascent heparan sulfate chains. (330 aa) | ||||
B4GALNT2 | Beta-1,4 N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2; Involved in the synthesis of the Sd(a) antigen (Sia-alpha2,3- [GalNAc-beta1,4]Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc), a carbohydrate determinant expressed on erythrocytes, the colonic mucosa and other tissues. Transfers a beta-1,4-linked GalNAc to the galactose residue of an alpha-2,3-sialylated chain. (566 aa) |
