additional information | development and evaluation of a rapid, nonradioactive assay for measuring heparan sulfate C-5 epimerase activity using hydrogen/deuterium exchange-mass spectrometry, overview. The method involves the following steps: H/D exchange upon epimerization of the substrate with HS C5-epimerase, low-pH nitrous acid treatment of the substrate, the separation of low-pH nitrous acid-cleaved disaccharides using HPLC, and mass spectrometry analysis | Homo sapiens | ? | - |

physiological function | heparin and heparan sulfate (HS) glycosaminoglycans have important roles in anticoagulation, human development, and human diseases. HS C5-epimerase, which catalyzes the reversible epimerization of GlcA to IdoA, is a crucial enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of heparin-related biomolecules | Homo sapiens |
