CHST11 Protein, Human, Recombinant (His)

CHST11, also known as C4ST-1, belongs to the sulfotransferase 2 family. CHST11 localizes to the golgi membrane, and catalyzes the transfer of sulfate to position 4 of the N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) residue of chondroitin. Chondroitin sulfate constitutes the predominant proteoglycan present in cartilage, and is distributed on the surfaces of many cells and extracellular matrices. A chromosomal translocation involving CHST11 gene and IgH, t (12;14) (q23; q32), has been reported in a patient with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
