Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionsqv-5 encodes a chondroitin synthase that both initiates and elongates chondroitin chains (unlike human chondroitin synthase, which only elongates them); SQV-5 is required for cytokinesis (e.g., at the one-cell embryo stage), gonad migration, and vulval morphogenesis (by expanding the extracellular space of the vulva in L4 larvae); the common requirement for SQV-5 in both processes may be to promote filling an extracellular space with fluid (either in the eggshell, or underneath the L4 cuticle); SQV-5 colocalizes with SQV-1 at punctate foci (probably the Golgi apparatus) in the cytoplasm of the vulva, the uterus and oocytes; SQV-5 is most similar to human chondroitin synthase (KIAA0990) and Drosophila CG9220.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00003405

Automated_descriptionEnables enzyme binding activity. Involved in several processes, including egg-laying behavior; positive regulation of vulval development; and vulval development. Located in cytoplasm. Expressed in oocyte; uterus; and vulva. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in temtamy preaxial brachydactyly syndrome. Is an ortholog of human CHSY1 (chondroitin sulfate synthase 1) and CHSY3 (chondroitin sulfate synthase 3).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
