Heparan sulfate C5-epimerase is essential for heparin biosynthesis in mast cells
Biosynthesis of heparin, a mast cell–derived glycosaminoglycan with widespread importance in medicine, has not been fully elucidated. In biosynthesis of heparan sulfate (HS), a structurally related polysaccharide, HS glucuronyl C5-epimerase (Hsepi) converts D -glucuronic acid (GlcA) to L -iduronic acid (IdoA) residues. We have generated Hsepi -null mouse mutant mast cells, and we show that the same enzyme catalyzes the generation of IdoA in heparin and that 'heparin' lacking IdoA shows a distorted O -sulfation pattern.
