Summary: Enables UDP-glucuronate decarboxylase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cartilage development; extracellular matrix organization; and proteoglycan biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi cisterna membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including cartilage element; head; mesenchyme; perichondrium; and yolk syncytial layer. Orthologous to human UXS1 (UDP-glucuronate decarboxylase 1).

What's a GeneRIF?

analysis of chondroitin sulfate and heparan sulfate biosynthesis in zebrafish larvae homozygous for mutations in ext2, extl3, uxs1, or b3gat3
Title: On the roles and regulation of chondroitin sulfate and heparan sulfate in zebrafish pharyngeal cartilage morphogenesis.
These results show that uxs1 transcript is localized in a pattern consistent with the mutant craniofacial phenotype, and that transcript instability may contribute to the loss of uxs1 function in uxs1hi3357 larvae.
Title: UDP xylose synthase 1 is required for morphogenesis and histogenesis of the craniofacial skeleton.

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.
