Sulfotransferase and Heparanase: Remodeling Engines in Promoting Virus Infection and Disease Development

An extraordinary binding site generated in heparan sulfate (HS) structures, during its biosynthesis, provides a unique opportunity to interact with multiple protein ligands including viral proteins, and therefore adds tremendous value to this master molecule. An example of such a moiety is the sulfa...
