CSGALNACT2 chondroitin sulfate N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 55454)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 55454)
Symbol: CSGALNACT2
Full name: chondroitin sulfate N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: CHGN2; ChGn-2; GALNACT-2; GALNACT2; PRO0082; beta4GalNAcT
Summary: This gene encodes a member of the chondroitin N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase family. The encoded protein is involved in elongation during chondroitin sulfate synthesis. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. Two related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosome X. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
