About CHST2

Cytogenetic location: 3q24 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:143,119,771-143,124,014 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 213 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Broad expression in spleen (RPKM 8.2), placenta (RPKM 6.8) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

This locus encodes a sulfotransferase protein. The encoded Enzyme catalyzes the sulfation of a nonreducing N-acetylglucosamine residue, and may play a role in biosynthesis of 6-sulfosialyl Lewis X antigen. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
