Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** HS3ST4 is a type II transmembrane glycosyltransferase, which implies that it is anchored to the Golgi membrane and capable of transferring glucosamine residues to heparan sulfate chains. This enzyme is specifically expressed in various cell types, including granule cells, mature microglial cells, macroglial cells, stellate neurons, dendritic cells, retinal cone cells, central nervous system macrophages, brainstem motor neurons, double negative thymocytes, and T cells. The expression of HS3ST4 is often associated with the formation of HSPGs, which are involved in the regulation of cell signaling, cell adhesion, and immune responses. **Pathways and Functions:** HS3ST4 is involved in the biosynthesis of heparan sulfate proteoglycans, which are complex molecules composed of a core protein and a heparan sulfate chain. The sulfation of glucosamine residues by HS3ST4 is a critical step in the formation of HSPGs, which play a crucial role in various physiological processes, including: 1. **Cell signaling:** HSPGs serve as co-receptors for growth factors and other signaling molecules, regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. 2. **Immune responses:** HSPGs are involved in the regulation of immune cell functions, including cell adhesion, migration, and activation. 3. **Cell adhesion:** HSPGs interact with cell surface receptors, regulating cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of HS3ST4 and HSPG biosynthesis has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Neurological disorders:** Abnormal HSPG expression has been linked to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. 2. **Cancer:** Altered HSPG expression has been observed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer. 3. **Autoimmune diseases:** Dysregulation of HSPG expression has been implicated in autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. In conclusion, HS3ST4 is a critical enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of heparan sulfate proteoglycans, which play a vital role in various physiological processes, including cell signaling, immune responses, and cellular differentiation. Further research on HS3ST4 and its dysregulation is essential to understand the underlying mechanisms of various diseases and to develop novel therapeutic strategies.
