HS6ST2 - heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase 2 Gene
Also Known as MRXSPM
Species: Homo sapiens
About HS6ST2
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Biased expression in kidney (RPKM 4.4), ovary (RPKM 4.1) and 11 other tissues.
Summary
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans are ubiquitous components of the cell surface, extracellular matrix, and basement membranes, and interact with various ligands to influence cell growth, differentiation, adhesion, and migration. This gene encodes a member of the heparan sulfate (HS) sulfotransferase gene family, which catalyze the transfer of sulfate to HS. Different family members and isoforms are thought to synthesize heparan sulfates with tissue-specific structures and functions. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
