Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase activity. Involved in heparan sulfate proteoglycan biosynthetic process. Is active in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; embryo mesenchyme; eye; foot bone; and genitourinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Paganini-Miozzo syndrome. Orthologous to human HS6ST2 (heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase 2). PHENOTYPE: Female homozygous or male hemizygous mice for a disruption in this gene display a normal phenotype.
