Full name: beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase 2 (glucuronosyltransferase S)

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: VALIDATED

Also known as: GlcAT-S; Glcats

Summary: Predicted to enable galactosylgalactosylxylosylprotein 3-beta-glucuronosyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in carbohydrate biosynthetic process and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Barrett's esophagus and schizophrenia. Orthologous to human B3GAT2 (beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase 2).
