| Function |
Catalyzes the transfer of sulfate to beta-1,3-linked galactose residues in O-linked glycoproteins. Good substrates include asialofetuin, Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc and Gal-beta-1,3 (GlcNAc-beta-1,6)GalNAc. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11333265}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Golgi apparatus, Golgi stack membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed mainly in placenta, thymus, testis, ovary, spinal cord, trachea and adrenal gland and at low levels in brain, lung, spleen, prostate, small intestine, colon, stomach thyroid and lymph node. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11333265}.
