Gene information for HS3ST2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9956
Official gene symbolHS3ST2
Full nameheparan sulfate (glucosamine) 3-O-sulfotransferase 2
Aliases,30ST2,3OST2,
Gene summaryHeparan 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]
