GAL3ST4 - galactose-3-O-sulfotransferase 4 Gene
Also Known as GAL3ST-4
Species: Homo sapiens
About GAL3ST4
This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 202 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in skin (RPKM 11.3), salivary gland (RPKM 5.3) and 21 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the galactose-3-O-sulfotransferase protein family. The product of this gene catalyzes sulfonation by transferring a sulfate to the C-3' position of galactose residues in O-linked glycoproteins. This enzyme is highly specific for core 1 structures, with asialofetuin, Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc and Gal-beta-1,3 (GlcNAc-beta-1,6)GalNAc being good substrates. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
