Entrez ID 55454
Gene name Chondroitin sulfate N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2
Gene symbol CSGALNACT2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CHGN2ChGn-2GALNACT-2GALNACT2PRO0082beta4GalNAcT
Chromosome 10
Chromosome location 10q11.21
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 rela
