Enzyme Information
| 2.4.1.175 |
Glucuronosyl-N-acetylgalactosaminyl-proteoglycan 4-beta-N- acetylgalactosaminyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q8L0V4
UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosamine + beta-D-glucuronosyl-(1->3)-N-acetyl- beta-D-galactosaminyl-proteoglycan = UDP + N-acetyl-beta-D- galactosaminyl-(1->4)-beta-D-glucuronosyl-(1->3)-N-acetyl-beta-D- galactosaminyl-proteoglycan.
-!- Involved in the biosynthesis of chondroitin sulfate. -!- The human form of this enzyme is a bifunctional glycosyltransferase, which also has the EC 2.4.1.226 activity required for the synthesis of the chondroitin sulfate disaccharide repeats. -!- Similar chondroitin synthase 'copolymerases' can be found in Pasteurella multocida and Escherichia coli.

| 2.4.1.226 |
N-acetylgalactosaminyl-proteoglycan 3-beta-glucuronosyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q8L0V4
UDP-alpha-D-glucuronate + N-acetyl-beta-D-galactosaminyl-(1->4)-beta-D- glucuronosyl-proteoglycan = UDP + beta-D-glucuronosyl-(1->3)-N-acetyl- beta-D-galactosaminyl-(1->4)-beta-D-glucuronosyl-proteoglycan.
-!- Involved in the biosynthesis of chondroitin and dermatan sulfate. -!- The human chondroitin synthetase is a bifunctional glycosyltransferase, which also has the EC 2.4.1.175 activity required for the synthesis of the chondroitin sulfate disaccharide repeats. -!- Similar chondroitin synthase 'copolymerases' can be found in Pasteurella multocida and Escherichia coli. -!- There is also another human protein with apparently only the 3-beta- glucuronosyltransferase activity.
