Summary

HS6ST1 (heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase 1, HGNC:5201) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2q14.3, encoding Heparan-sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase 1 (O60243). 6-O-sulfation enzyme which catalyzes the transfer of sulfate from 3’-phosphoadenosine 5’-phosphosulfate (PAPS) to position 6 of the N-sulfoglucosamine residue (GlcNS) of heparan sulfate. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 43.9% of cell lines).

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the heparan sulfate biosynthetic enzyme family. Heparan sulfate biosynthetic enzymes are key components in generating a myriad of distinct heparan sulfate fine structures that carry out multiple biological activities. This enzyme is a type II integral membrane protein and is responsible for 6-O-sulfation of heparan sulfate. This enzyme does not share significant sequence similarity with other known sulfotransferases. A pseudogene located on chromosome 1 has been found for this gene.

  • we have characterized HS6ST-2 and HS6ST-1 human isologues, including their chromosomal localizations,HS6STs could also transfer sulphate to N -sulphoglucosamine residues located at the non-reducing terminal of HS with high affinity. (PMID:12492399)
  • idiopathic hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism–associated HS6ST1 mutations display reduced activity in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that HS6ST1 and the complex modifications of extracellular sugars are critical for normal development (PMID:21700882)
  • Hs6st1 and Hs2st generate conditions conducive to corpus callosum development. (PMID:24501377)
  • HS6ST-1 and HS6ST-2 have roles in regulating the angiogenic program in ovarian cancer cells affecting HB-EGF signaling and subsequent expression of angiogenic cytokines by cancer cells (PMID:24563483)
  • RT-PCR analysis showed that the overall transcriptional activity of the main Heparan Sulfate biosynthesis-involved genes (EXT1, EXT2, NDST1, NDST2, GLCE, HS2ST1, HS3ST1, HS3ST2, HS6ST1, HS6ST2, SULF1, SULF2, HPSE) was decreased by 1.5-2-fold in Grade II-III glioma. (PMID:29104277)
  • We have linked a deleterious mutation in HS6ST1 to familial self-limited delayed puberty and show that heterozygous Hs6st1 loss causes delayed puberty in mice. In this study, the observed overlap in potentially pathogenic mutations contributing to the phenotypes of self-limited delayed puberty and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism was limited to this one gene. (PMID:29931354)
  • HS6ST1 overexpressed in cancer-associated fibroblast and inhibited cholangiocarcinoma progression. (PMID:36586771)

Function. 6-O-sulfation enzyme which catalyzes the transfer of sulfate from 3’-phosphoadenosine 5’-phosphosulfate (PAPS) to position 6 of the N-sulfoglucosamine residue (GlcNS) of heparan sulfate. Critical for normal neuronal development where it may play a role in neuron branching. May also play a role in limb development. May prefer iduronic acid.

Subcellular location. Membrane.

Tissue specificity. Expressed in fetal brain.

Post-translational modifications. N-glycosylated.

Disease relevance. Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 15 with or without anosmia (HH15) [MIM:614880] A disorder characterized by absent or incomplete sexual maturation by the age of 18 years, in conjunction with low levels of circulating gonadotropins and testosterone and no other abnormalities of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis. In some cases, it is associated with non-reproductive phenotypes, such as anosmia, cleft palate, and sensorineural hearing loss. Anosmia or hyposmia is related to the absence or hypoplasia of the olfactory bulbs and tracts. Hypogonadism is due to deficiency in gonadotropin-releasing hormone and probably results from a failure of embryonic migration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone-synthesizing neurons. In the presence of anosmia, idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is referred to as Kallmann syndrome, whereas in the presence of a normal sense of smell, it has been termed normosmic idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (nIHH). The disease is caused by variants affecting distinct genetic loci, including the gene represented in this entry.

Similarity. Belongs to the sulfotransferase 6 family.
