Product Name:Heparan sulfate
Product Description:Heparan sulfate (HS) is a linear
polysaccharide found in all animal tissues. It occurs as a
proteoglycan (HSPG) in which two or three HS chains are attached in
close proximity to cell surface or extracellular matrix proteins.
It is in this form that HS binds to a variety of protein ligands
and regulates a wide variety of biological activities, including
developmental processes, angiogenesis, blood coagulation and tumour
metastasis.
