EXT Proteins in Heparan Sulfate Biosynthesis
Heparan sulfate (HS) is a long unbranched polysaccharide composed of alternating glucosamine and hexuronic (glucuronic or iduronic) acid residues. Modification by sulfate groups in various positions generates a highly heterogeneous molecule. HS is synthesized as a proteoglycan by virtually all cells...
