Iduronate 2-sulfataseIduronate 2-sulfatase

Iduronate 2-sulfatase (I2S), also referred to as Alpha-L-iduronate sulfate sulfatase or Idursulfase, is a lysosomal enzyme involved in the degradation pathway of dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate.[1] Function Iduronate 2-sulfatase is located in the lysosome.[1] It is involved in the lysosomal degradation pathway of dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate.[1] I2S hydrolyzes the 2-sulfate groups of the L-iduronate 2-sulfate units of dermatan sulfate, heparan sulfate and heparin.[1] Dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate are complex glycosaminoglycans, which are essentially large sugar molecules.[2] They play important roles in cell adhesion, growth, proliferation and repair, and their degradation and recycling in the lysosome are essential for cellular maintenance.[2] Structural highlights This is a sample scene created with SAT to by Group, and another to make of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
