T1 0-252 Sentence denotes Molecular cloning and expression of human chondroitin N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase: the key enzyme for chain initiation and elongation of chondroitin/dermatan sulfate on the protein linkage region tetrasaccharide shared by heparin/heparan sulfate.
T2 253-479 Sentence denotes Based on sequence homology with the recently cloned human chondroitin synthase, we identified a novel beta1,4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase, which consisted of 532 amino acids with a type II transmembrane protein topology.
T3 480-565 Sentence denotes The amino acid sequence displayed 27% identity to that of human chondroitin synthase.
T4 566-1078 Sentence denotes The expression of a soluble form of the protein in COS-1 cells produced an active enzyme, which transferred beta1,4-N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) from UDP-[(3)H]GalNAc not only to a polymer chondroitin representing growing chondroitin chains (beta-GalNAc transferase II activity) but also to GlcUAbeta1--3Galbeta1-O-C(2)H(4)NH-benzyloxycarbonyl, a synthetic substrate for beta-GalNAc transferase I that transfers the first GalNAc to the core tetrasaccharide in the protein linkage region of chondroitin sulfate.
T5 1079-1421 Sentence denotes Hence, the enzyme is involved in the biosynthetic initiation and elongation of chondroitin sulfate and is the key enzyme responsible for the selective chain assembly of chondroitin/dermatan sulfate on the linkage region tetrasaccharide common to various proteoglycans containing chondroitin/dermatan sulfate or heparin/heparan sulfate chains.
T6 1422-1523 Sentence denotes The coding region of this enzyme was divided into seven discrete exons and localized to chromosome 8.
T7 1524-1754 Sentence denotes Northern blot analysis revealed that the chondroitin GalNAc transferase gene exhibited a ubiquitous but markedly differential expression in human tissues and that the expression pattern was similar to that of chondroitin synthase.
T8 1755-1953 Sentence denotes Thus, more than two distinct enzymes forming the novel gene family are required for chain initiation and elongation in chondroitin/dermatan sulfate as in the biosynthesis of heparin/heparan sulfate.
