Moderate granular or dot like cytoplasmic positivity was observed in most malignant cells. A few cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, prostate and endometrial cancers were strongly stained. Several cases of squamous and basal cell carcinomas were weakly stained or negative.
Heparan sulfate biosynthetic enzymes are key components in generating a myriad of distinct heparan sulfate fine structures that carry out multiple biologic activities. This gene encodes a member of the heparan sulfate biosynthetic enzyme family that transfers sulfate to the 2 position of the iduronic acid residue of heparan sulfate. The disruption of this gene resulted in no kidney formation in knockout embryonic mice, indicating that the absence of this enzyme may interfere with the signaling required for kidney formation. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different proteins have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]
