Target/Specificity | This CHST2 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 309-335 amino acids from the Central region of human CHST2. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 FC~~1:10~50 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | CHST2 Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | CHST2 |

Synonyms | GN6ST |
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 within keratan-like structures on N-linked glycans and within mucin-associated glycans that can ultimately serve as SELL ligands. SELL ligands are present in high endothelial cells (HEVs) and play a central role in lymphocyte homing at sites of inflammation. Participates in biosynthesis of the SELL ligand sialyl 6-sulfo Lewis X and in lymphocyte homing to Peyer patches. Has no activity toward O-linked sugars. Its substrate specificity may be influenced by its subcellular location. Sulfates GlcNAc residues at terminal, non-reducing ends of oligosaccharide chains. |
Cellular Location | Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed. Highly expressed in bone marrow, peripheral blood leukocytes, spleen, brain, spinal cord, ovary and placenta. Expressed by high endothelial cells (HEVs) and leukocytes |

Background
N-acetylglucosamine-6-O-sulfotransferases, such as CHST2, catalyze the transfer of sulfate from 3-prime-phosphoadenosine 5-prime-phosphosulfate (PAPS) to position 6 of a nonreducing N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) residue (Uchimura et al., 1998 [PubMed 9722682]).
