NDST2 - N-deacetylase and N-sulfotransferase 2 Gene
Also Known as NST2; HSST2; N-HSST 2
Species: Homo sapiens
About NDST2
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 207 orthologues and 10 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in spleen (RPKM 13.3), bone marrow (RPKM 9.9) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the N-deacetylase/N-sulfotransferase subfamily of the sulfotransferase 1 proteins. The encoded enzyme has dual functions in processing glucosamine and heparin Polymers, including N-deacetylation and N-sulfation. The encoded protein may be localized to the Golgi.
