General description

Heparan sulfate glucosamine 3-O-sulfotransferase 2 (HS3ST2) is expressed in neurons. It is part of the heparan sulfate biosynthetic enzyme family and the gene encoding it is localized on chromosome 16.

Immunogen

Heparan sulfate glucosamine 3-O-sulfotransferase 2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Heparan sulfate glucosamine 3-O-sulfotransferase 2 (HS3ST2) is involved in generating rare 3-O-sulphated domains in heparan sulphates and takes part in the final modification step during biosynthesis of heparan sulphate. HS3ST2 has a heparan sulfate glucosaminyl 3-O-sulfotransferase activity which carries out the 3-O-sulfation of glucosamine residues, thus leading to a modification in glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains. This enzyme has the capacity to generate herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) entry receptors. Studies have shown that its expression makes Chinese hamster ovary K1 (CHO-K1) cells prone to HSV-1 infection. HS3ST2 may act as a therapeutic target for Alzheimer′s disease.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

This study was aimed at investigating the functional significance of heparan sulfate (glucosamine) 3-O-sulfotransferase 2 (HS3ST2) hypermethylation in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). HS3ST2 hypermethylation was characterized in six lung cancer cell lines, and its clinical significance was analyzed using

3-O-Sulfated glucosaminyl residues are rare constituents of heparan sulfate and are essential for the activity of anticoagulant heparan sulfate. Cellular production of the critical active structure is controlled by the rate-limiting enzyme, heparan sulfate D-glucosaminyl 3-O-sulfotransferase-1 (3-OST-1) (EC 2.8.2.23). We
