Ligands: A3P Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [NDST1_HUMAN] Essential bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes both the N-deacetylation and the N-sulfation of glucosamine (GlcNAc) of the glycosaminoglycan in heparan sulfate. Modifies the GlcNAc-GlcA disaccharide repeating sugar backbone to make N-sulfated heparosan, a prerequisite substrate for later modifications in heparin biosynthesis. Plays a role in determining the extent and pattern of sulfation of heparan sulfate. Compared to other NDST enzymes, its presence is absolutely required. Participates in biosynthesis of heparan sulfate that can ultimately serve as L-selectin ligands, thereby playing a role in inflammatory response.

Publication Abstract from PubMed Heparan sulfate N-deacetylase/N-sulfotransferase (HSNST) catalyzes the first and obligatory step in the biosynthesis of heparan sulfates and heparin. The crystal structure of the sulfotransferase domain (NST1) of human HSNST-1 has been determined at 2.3-A resolution in a binary complex with 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphate (PAP). NST1 is approximately spherical with an open cleft, and consists of a single alpha/beta fold with a central five-stranded parallel beta-sheet and a three-stranded anti-parallel beta-sheet bearing an interstrand disulfide bond. The structural regions alpha1, alpha6, beta1, beta7, 5'-phosphosulfate binding loop (between beta1 and alpha1), and a random coil (between beta8 and alpha13) constitute the PAP binding site of NST1. The alpha6 and random coil (between beta2 and alpha2), which form an open cleft near the 5'-phosphate of the PAP molecule, may provide interactions for substrate binding. The conserved residue Lys-614 is in position to form a hydrogen bond with the bridge oxygen of the 5'-phosphate.
