3-OST-5 proteins, and nucleic acid molecules encoding the same. Recombinant host cells, recombinant nucleic acids and recombinant proteins are also disclosed, along with methods of producing each. Isolated and purified antibodies to 3-OST-5 homologs, and methods of producing the same, are also disclosed. 3OST-5 gene products have biological activity in specific heparan sulfate 3-O-sulfotransferase reactions. These reactions provide unique modified heparan sulfate. Thus, therapeutic methods involving this activity are also disclosed.
