Bifunctional heparan sulfate N-deacetylase/N-sulfotransferase 3 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NDST3 gene.^[5]^[6] It catalyses the reaction:

3'-phosphoadenylyl sulfate + α-D-glucosaminyl-[heparan sulfate]_(n) = adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate + 2 H⁺ + N-sulfo-α-D-glucosaminyl-[heparan sulfate]_(n)^[7]
