The protein encoded byThis gene is a member ofThe glucuronyltransferase gene family, enzymes that exhibit strict acceptor specificity, recognizing nonreducing terminal sugars andTheir anomeric linkages.This gene product catalyzesThe formation ofThe glycosaminoglycan-protein linkage by way of a glucuronyl transfer reaction inThe final step ofThe biosynthesis ofThe linkage region of proteoglycans. A pseudogene ofThis gene has been identified on chromosome 3. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]
