Summary: Enables heparosan-N-sulfate-glucuronate 5-epimerase activity. Involved in heparan sulfate proteoglycan biosynthetic process and heparin biosynthetic process. Located in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; and integumental system.

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.
