Function |
Sulfotransferase that utilizes 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate (PAPS) as sulfonate donor to catalyze the transfer of sulfate to position 6 of non-reducing N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) residues and O-linked sugars of mucin-type acceptors. Acts on the non-reducing terminal GlcNAc of short carbohydrate substrates. However, it does not transfer sulfate to longer carbohydrate substrates that have poly-N-acetyllactosamine structures. Has no activity toward keratan. Not involved in generating HEV-expressed ligands for SELL. Its substrate specificity may be influenced by its subcellular location. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10491328, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11352640, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12218059, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12626414}.

Subcellular Location |
Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12855678}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12855678}. Note=Golgi membrane, early secretory pathway.

Tissue Specificity |
Predominantly expressed in small and large intestines and colon. Weakly expressed in lymphocytes. Not expressed in other tissues. Down-regulated in colonic adenocarcinomas. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10491328, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11017086, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11352640, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12107080, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12626414}.
