            Transferring sulfur-containing groups
            Sulfotransferases
SYSNAME     3'-Phosphoadenylylsulfate:chondroitin 6'-sulfotransferase
REACTION    3'-Phosphoadenylylsulfate + Chondroitin =
            Adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate + Chondroitin 6'-sulfate
SUBSTRATE   3'-Phosphoadenylylsulfate
            Chondroitin
PRODUCT     Adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate
            Chondroitin 6'-sulfate
COMMENT     The sulfation is at the 6-position of N-acetylgalactosamine
            residues of chondroitin. Not identical with EC 2.8.2.5.
