FunFam 58: Exostosin-like glycosyltransferase 2

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Glucuronosyl-galactosyl-proteoglycan 4-alpha-N- acetylglucosaminyltransferase. [EC: 2.4.1.223]
UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine + [protein]-3-O-(beta-D-GlcA-(1->3)- beta-D-Gal-(1->3)-beta-D-Gal-(1->4)-beta-D-Xyl)-L-serine = UDP + [protein]-3-O-(alpha-D-GlcNAc-(1->4)-beta-D-GlcA-(1->3)-beta-D-Gal- (1->3)-beta-D-Gal-(1->4)-beta-D-Xyl)-L-serine.
  • Enzyme involved in the initiation of heparin and heparan sulfate synthesis, transferring GlcNAc to the (GlcA-Gal-Gal-Xyl-)Ser core.
  • Apparently products of both the human EXTL2 and EXTL3 genes can catalyze this reaction.
  • In Caenorhabditis elegans, the product of the rib-2 gene displays this activity as well as that of EC 2.4.1.224.
