| Primary Identifier | MGI:1932545 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 64580 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables N-acetylglucosamine deacetylase activity and [heparan sulfate]-glucosamine N-sulfotransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in heparan sulfate proteoglycan biosynthetic process, polysaccharide chain biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; liver; lung; nervous system; and spleen. Orthologous to human NDST4 (N-deacetylase and N-sulfotransferase 4). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit a phenotype restricted to the colonic epithelium that includes an increased number of colon goblet cells, a decreased number of colonocytes, and increased apoptosis of colonic epithelial cells in the proximal colon.
