Last Modified 2014-10-13 [Report errors or provide feedback]
Gene Symbol GLCE
Protein Name D-glucuronyl C5-epimerase
Synonyms
Species Bos taurus
Ensembl Protein ENSBTAP00000001844
InnateDB Gene IDBG-645524 (GLCE)
Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Converts D-glucuronic acid residues adjacent to N- sulfate sugar residues to L-iduronic acid residues, both in maturing heparan sulfate (HS) and heparin chains. This is important for further modifications that determine the specificity of interactions between these glycosaminoglycans and proteins. {ECO:0000269PubMed:11274177}.
Subcellular Localization Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
