| Function: | Sulfotransferase that utilizes 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate (PAPS) to catalyze the transfer of a sulfo group to position 3 of glucosamine residues in heparan. Catalyzes the rate limiting step in the biosynthesis of heparan sulfate (HSact). This modification is a crucial step in the biosynthesis of anticoagulant heparan sulfate as it completes the structure of the antithrombin pentasaccharide binding site. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9346953}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=3'-phosphoadenylyl sulfate + alpha-D-glucosaminyl-[heparan sulfate](n) = 3-sulfo-alpha-D-glucosaminyl-[heparan sulfate](n) + adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate + H(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:15461, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:9830, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9831, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:58339, ChEBI:CHEBI:58343, ChEBI:CHEBI:58388, ChEBI:CHEBI:70975; EC=2.8.2.23; | |
| Subcellular location: | Golgi apparatus lumen {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the sulfotransferase 1 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
