Ndst3 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables N-acetylglucosamine deacetylase activity and heparan sulfate N-sulfotransferase activity. Involved in heparan sulfate proteoglycan biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in several structures, including exocrine system; future brain; genitourinary system; nervous system; and retina. Orthologous to human NDST3 (N-deacetylase and N-sulfotransferase 3).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Ndst3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
