Summary: Predicted to enable hyaluronan synthase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; dorsal convergence; and fin regeneration. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; mesoderm; pericardial region; presumptive paraxial mesoderm; and swim bladder bud. Orthologous to human HAS2 (hyaluronan synthase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Fgf signaling is required early, from 6 to 10h pf,for has2 activation. Loss of has2 results inthe loss of the chondrogenic program resulting in postchordal neurocranial defects in Fgf loss-of-function embryos. Shh is not essential for this early activation of has2.

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.
