malfunction | Chsy1-/- mice show a profound limb patterning defect in which orthogonally shifted ectopic joints form in the distal digits. Associated with the digit-patterning defect is a shift in cell orientation and an imbalance in chondroitin sulfation. Chondrogenesis is impaired as early as E13.5 in Chsy1-/- embryos. Ectopic, split digit phenotype, overview | Mus musculus |
physiological function | Chsy1 catalyzes the extension of chondroitin and dermatan sulfate glycosaminoglycans and is an essential regulator of joint patterning | Mus musculus |
