    Changes in heparan sulfate are associated with delayed wound repair, altered cell migration, adhesion and contractility in the galactosyltransferase I (beta4GalT-7) deficient form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (2008), Hum. Mol. Genet., 17, 996-1009.

skin fibroblast from an Ehlers-Danlos syndrome patient carrying the C808T mutation in the beta4GalT-7 gene, and skin fibroblasts from a healthy age-matched donor. The reduction in galactosyltransferase activity caused by the R270C substitution in beta4GalT-7 leads to a reduction in the sulfation degree of heparan sulfate. The structural alterations, which were particularly prominent for cell-associated heparan sulfate, are paralleled by significantly delayed wound closure in vitro, increased adhesion to fibronectin, a reduced capability to form actin stress fibers, filopodia and collagen gel-contracting forces Homo sapiens
