CHST3 Human

Source:Sf9, Baculovirus cells.Physical Appearance:Sterile filtered colorless solution.Biological ActivitySpecific activity is greater than 1,000 pmol/min/ug, and is defined as the amount of enzyme that sulfate from PAPS to Chondroitin Sulfate per minute at pH 7.5, at 25C.Carbohydrate Sulfotransferase 3 (CHST3) belong to sulfotransferase 1 family which iincludes 14 enzymes that all members are Golgi-localized type II membrane proteins. These enzymes utilizes 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate (PAPS) as sulfonate donor to catalyze the transfer of sulfate to position 6 of the N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) residue of chondroitin. CHST3 can also sulfate Gal residues of keratan sulfate and Gal residues in sialyl N-acetyllactosamine (sialyl LacNAc) oligosaccharides. CHST3 is expressed in heart, placenta, skeletal muscle and pancreas. CHST3 takes part in maintenance of naive T-lymphocytes in the spleen.CHST3 produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 450 amino acids (39-479.a.a) and having a molecular mass of 51.3kDa. CHST3 is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
