Summary
Heparan sulfate biosynthetic enzymes are key components in generating a myriad of distinct heparan sulfate fine structures that carry out multiple biologic activities. The enzyme encoded by this gene is a member of the heparan sulfate biosynthetic enzyme family. It is a type II integral membrane protein and possesses heparan sulfate glucosaminyl 3-O-sulfotransferase activity. This gene is expressed predominantly in brain and may play a role in the nervous system. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

  5. In primary macrophages, HS3ST2 was clearly visualized at the plasma membrane. Its truncated form remained in the Golgi apparatus, meaning that the catalytic domain might support correct addressing of HS3ST2 to cell surface. HS3ST2 partly co-localized with syndecan-2 in HeLa cells and primary macrophages suggesting that this enzyme may participate in discrete processes that occur at the cell surface.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
