CHST13 - carbohydrate sulfotransferase 13 Gene
Also Known as C4ST3
Species: Homo sapiens
About CHST13
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 254 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Biased expression in liver (RPKM 5.7), testis (RPKM 3.2) and 4 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the sulfotransferase 2 family. It is localized to the golgi membrane, and catalyzes the transfer of sulfate to the C4 hydroxyl of beta-1,4-linked N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) flanked by glucuronic acid residue in chondroitin. Chondroitin sulfate constitutes the predominant proteoglycan present in cartilage and is distributed on the surfaces of many cells and extracellular matrices. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
