General annotation (Comments)

Function

Essential bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes both the N-deacetylation and the N-sulfation of glucosamine (GlcNAc) of the glycosaminoglycan in heparan sulfate. Modifies the GlcNAc-GlcA dissacharide repeating sugar backbone to make N-sulfated heparosan, a prerequisite substrate for later modifications in heparin biosynthesis. Has low deacetylase activity but high sulfotransferase activity. Ref.1

Catalytic activity

3'-phosphoadenylyl sulfate + [heparan sulfate]-glucosamine = adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate + [heparan sulfate]-N-sulfoglucosamine.

Pathway

Glycan metabolism; heparan sulfate biosynthesis.

Glycan metabolism; heparin biosynthesis.

Subunit structure

Monomer By similarity.

Subcellular location

Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Expressed at low level in brain and throughout embryogenesis. Not expressed in other tissues. Ref.1

Miscellaneous

The presence of 4 different heparan sulfate N-deacetylase/N-sulfotransferase enzymes in mammals, as well as differences in their enzyme activity suggest that some initiate heparan sulfate modification/sulfation reactions, whereas other later on fill in or extend already modified heparan sulfate sequences.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the sulfotransferase 1 family. NDST subfamily.
