heparan sulfate (glucosamine) 3-O-sulfotransferase 6

Gene ID

328779

Gene Synonyms

3-OST-6

ORF Size

999 bp

RefSeq#

BC145424

Gene Description

Sulfotransferase that utilizes 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate (PAPS) to catalyze the transfer of a sulfo group to heparan sulfate. The substrate-specific O-sulfation generates an enzyme-modified heparan sulfate which acts as a binding receptor to Herpes Simplex Virus-1 (HSV-1) and permits its entry. Unlike 3-OST-1, does not convert non-anticoagulant heparan sulfate to anticoagulant heparan sulfate.
