Carbohydrate sulfotransferase 4 (CHST4) transfers sulfate (SO4(2-)) from the high energy donor 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate (PAPS) to position 6 of non-reducing N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) residues of mucin-associated glycans that ultimately serve as SELL ligands which are present in high endothelial cells (HEVs) and play a central role in lymphocyte homing at sites of inflammation. CHST4 preferentially sulfates Core 2 mucins (Bistrup et al. 1999). CHST4 is localised to the Golgi membrane (de Graffenried & Bertozzi 2004).
