Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables N-acetylglucosamine-6-sulfatase activity. Involved in several processes, including esophagus smooth muscle contraction; glomerular filtration; and skeletal system development. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; limb; lower urogenital tract; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SULF1 (sulfatase 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele display a slight increase in mortality early in life. [provided by MGI curators] |
