Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 76969 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable N-acetylglucosamine 6-O-sulfotransferase activity and keratan sulfotransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in N-acetylglucosamine metabolic process; galactose metabolic process; and keratan sulfate biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within carbohydrate metabolic process and inflammatory response. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Predicted to be active in trans-Golgi network. Is expressed in eye; limb; and nervous system. Orthologous to human CHST1 (carbohydrate sulfotransferase 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit increased male sibling aggression when house together, a small decrease in the peripheral and mesenteric lymph nodes and peripheral blood and a small increase in the peripheral lymph nodes and peripheral blood.
