Summary
Enables heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within heparan sulfate proteoglycan biosynthetic process, enzymatic modification. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; embryo mesenchyme; eye; foot bone; and urethra. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Paganini-Miozzo syndrome. Orthologous to human HS6ST2 (heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
