Research Abstract

Sulfation of glycans, lipids, and proteins is involved in a variety of biological phenomena. PAPS transporters (PAPSTs) is a key component of sulfation processes. We performed RNAi knockdown for PAPSTs in mouse ES cells and found that sulfated glycans work on the maintenance and differentiation of ES cells through Wnt, BMP and FGF signals. PAPST1 knockout mice showed that reduction of PAPST activity causes various type of disorders.
