About NDST2

Cytogenetic location: 10q22.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:73,801,916-73,811,820 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 207 orthologues and 10 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in spleen (RPKM 13.3), bone marrow (RPKM 9.9) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the N-deacetylase/N-sulfotransferase subfamily of the sulfotransferase 1 proteins. The encoded enzyme has dual functions in processing glucosamine and heparin Polymers, including N-deacetylation and N-sulfation. The encoded protein may be localized to the Golgi.
