Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionhst-2 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of the heparan sulfate modifying enzyme 2O-sulfotransferase; by homology, HST-2 is predicted to function in heparan sulfate biosynthesis by catalyzing the chain-modifying sulfation of the C2 hydroxyl group of hexuronic acid; during development, hst-2 activity is required for normal body size, cell migration, and nervous system development; an hst-2::gfp reporter fusion is first expressed in embryos, continuing on through adulthood; expression is detected in many tissues, including the pharynx, hypodermis, muscles, vulva, and distal tip cells (DTCs) of the somatic gonad.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00006471

Automated_descriptionEnables heparan sulfate 2-O-sulfotransferase activity. Involved in heparan sulfate proteoglycan biosynthetic process, enzymatic modification; regulation of growth; and regulation of locomotion. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus. Expressed in several structures, including P6.paa; P6.pap; P6.ppa; hermaphrodite distal tip cell; and somatic nervous system. Is an ortholog of human HS2ST1 (heparan sulfate 2-O-sulfotransferase 1).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
