chondroitin sulfate synthase 3; carbohydrate synthase 2; chondroitin glucuronyltransferase 3; chondroitin synthase 2; ChSy-2; glucuronosyl-N-acetylgalactosaminyl-proteoglycan 4-beta-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase III; N-acetylgalactosaminyl-proteoglycan 3-beta-glucuronosyltransferase 3; N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 3 (CHSY3, CHSY2, CSS3)

Function
- both beta-1,3-glucuronic acid & beta-1,4-N-acetylgalactosamine transferase activity
- transfers GlcUA from UDP-GlcUA & GalNAc from UDP-GalNAc to non-reducing end of the elongating chondroitin polymer
- activity much reduced compared to CHSY1
Cofactor: divalent cations (Co+2, Mn+2, Cd+2)
Structure
- belongs to the chondroitin N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase family
Compartment
Expression
- expressed at low levels in brain, cerebral cortex, uterus, small intestine
