{"symbol":"NDST1","synonyms":["MRT46","HSST","NST1"],"name":"N-deacetylase/N-sulfotransferase (heparan glucosaminyl) 1","description":"This gene encodes a member of the heparan sulfate/heparin GlcNAc N-deacetylase/ N-sulfotransferase family. The encoded enzyme is a type II transmembrane protein that resides in the Golgi apparatus. The encoded protein catalyzes the transfer of sulfate from 3\u0027-phosphoadenosine 5\u0027-phosphosulfate to nitrogen of glucosamine in heparan sulfate. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
