The HNK-1 carbohydrate is expressed on various
adhesion molecules in the nervous system and is suggested to play a
role in cell-cell and cell-substratum interactions. Here we describe
the isolation and functional expression of a cDNA encoding a human sulfotransferase that synthesizes the HNK-1 carbohydrate epitope. A
mutant Chinese hamster ovary cell line, Lec2, which stably
expresses human neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM)
(Lec2-NCAM), was first established. Lec2-NCAM was co-transfected with a
human fetal brain cDNA library, a cDNA encoding the rat
glucuronyltransferase that forms a precursor of the HNK-1 carbohydrate,
and a vector encoding the polyoma large T antigen. The transfected
Lec2-NCAM cells expressing the HNK-1 glycan were enriched by
fluorescence-activated cell sorting. Sibling selection of recovered
plasmids resulted in a cDNA encoding a sulfotransferase, HNK-1ST,
that directs the expression of the HNK-1 carbohydrate epitope on the
cell surface. The deduced amino acid sequence indicates that the enzyme
is a type II membrane protein. Sequence analysis revealed that there is
a short amino acid sequence in the presumed catalytic domain, which is
highly homologous to the corresponding sequence in other
Golgi-associated sulfotransferases so far cloned. The amount of HNK-1ST
transcript is high in fetal brain compared with fetal lung, kidney, and
liver. Expression of HNK-1ST resulted in the formation of the HNK-1
epitope on N-CAM and a soluble chimeric form of HNK-1ST was shown to
add a sulfate group to a precursor,

nervous tissues.
