Summary: Predicted to enable UDP-glycosyltransferase activity and protein dimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in glycosaminoglycan biosynthetic process; heparan sulfate proteoglycan biosynthetic process, polysaccharide chain biosynthetic process; and ossification. Predicted to act upstream of or within with a positive effect on gene expression; protein N-linked glycosylation; and sulfation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including heparin biosynthetic process; multicellular organismal-level water homeostasis; and skeletal system development. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be part of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine transferase complex. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus. Orthologous to human EXT2 (exostosin glycosyltransferase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

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.
