General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
malfunction | the ratio of 4-O-sulfation to 6-O-sulfation (4S/6S) and CS chain length, that occur during the aging process, are decreased in polyamine-depleted cells. In addition, decreased levels of chondroitin synthase 1 (CHSY1, EC 2.4.1.175) and chondroitin 4-O-sulfotransferase 2 proteins are also observed on polyamine depletion. The destabilization of G4 structures by polyamines (i.e. putrescine, spermidine and spermine) stimulates CHSY1 synthesis and, at least in part, contributes to the maturation of CS chains | Homo sapiens |
metabolism | chondroitin sulfate (CS) biosynthesis is initiated once GalNAc is transferred by CSGalNAcT1 or 2 to the common linkage tetrasaccharide, GlcAbeta1-3galactose (Gal)beta1-3Galbeta1-4xylose (Xyl)beta1-O-serine in proteoglycans and chain elongation is then catalyzed by the chondroitin synthase (CHSY) 1-3/chondroitin-polymerizing factor (CHPF) heterodimer. After synthase-catalyzed polymerization, the majority of the GalNAc residues are 4-O-sulfated by chondroitin 4-O-sulfotransferases (C4ST1, 2 and 3) or 6-O-sulfated by chondroitin 6-O-sulfotransferases (C6ST1 and 2). In addition, resulting A- or C-unit can be further sulfated by GalNAc 4-sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase (GalNAc4S-6ST) or chondroitin uronyl 2-O-sulfotransferase (UST), generating di-sulfated disaccharides, E-unit or D-unit, respectively. Structural changes in CS, particularly the ratio of 4-O-sulfation to 6-O-sulfation (4S/6S), occur during normal embryonic development, during growth, and in aging. For example, the 4S/6S ratios of CS (or DS) present in human skin and cartilage decrease from birth to age 20 | Homo sapiens |
