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 of keratan (PubMed:11352640, PubMed:11278593, PubMed:12218059, PubMed:17690104). Cooperates with B4GALT4 galactosyltransferase and B3GNT7 N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase to construct and elongate the sulfated disaccharide unit [->3Galbeta1->4(6-sulfoGlcNAcbeta)1->] within keratan sulfate polymer. Involved in biosynthesis of keratan sulfate in cornea, with an impact on proteoglycan fibril organization and corneal transparency (PubMed:17690104, PubMed:11278593, PubMed:12218059). Involved in sulfation of endothelial mucins such as GLYCAM1 (PubMed:11352640). |
Cellular Location | Golgi apparatus membrane; Single- pass type II membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Expressed in cornea. Mainly expressed in brain. Also expressed in spinal cord and trachea |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme thatcatalyzes the transfer of a sulfate group to the GlcNAc residues ofkeratan. Keratan sulfate helps maintain corneal transparency.Defects in this gene are a cause of macular corneal dystrophy(MCD).
