Description
The CHST5 (carbohydrate sulfotransferase 5) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 16.
Carbohydrate sulfotransferase 5 is an enzyme encoded by the CHST5 gene in humans. It plays a role in transferring sulfate groups to specific carbohydrates.
CHST5 is also known as I-GlcNAc-6-ST, I-GlcNAc6ST, glcNAc6ST-3, gn6st-3, hIGn6ST.
