Background
Nucleotide sugars, which are synthesized in the cytosol or the nucleus, are high-energy donor substrates for glycosyltransferases located in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus. Translocation of nucleotide sugars from the cytosol into the lumen compartment is mediated by specific nucleotide sugar transporters, such as SLC35D2 (Suda et al., 2004 [PubMed 15082721]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008],
Function
function:Antiporter transporting nucleotide sugars such as UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc), UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) and GDP-mannose (GDP-Man) pooled in the cytosol into the lumen of the Golgi in exchange for the corresponding nucleosides monophosphates (UMP for UDP-sugars and GMP for GDP-sugars). May take part in heparan sulfate synthesis by supplying UDP-Glc-NAc, the donor substrate, and thus be involved in growth factor signaling.,similarity:Belongs to the TPT transporter family. SLC35D subfamily.,tissue specificity:Highly expressed in heart, kidney, small intestine, placenta, lung and peripheral blood leukocyte. Weakly expressed in skeletal muscle and spleen. Not expressed in brain, colon and thymus.,
