Summary: This gene encodes one of two glycosyltransferases involved in the chain elongation step of heparan sulfate biosynthesis. Mutations in this gene cause the type II form of multiple exostoses. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Germline EXT2 mutation is associated with chondrosarcoma.
Title: Familial solitary chondrosarcoma resulting from germline EXT2 mutation.
The mutation results in deletion of exon 5 in the mRNA, producing a frameshift that leads to a premature termination codon. The present study extends the mutational spectrum of EXT2.
Title: Novel mutation of EXT2 identified in a large family with multiple osteochondromas.
Authors identified two homozygous mutations p.Met87Arg and p.Arg95 Cys in exostosin 2, EXT2, a ubiquitously expressed gene that encodes a glycosyltransferase. In patient cells, diminished expression and function was observed.

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.

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (3) has multiple differences, compared to variant 1. These differences result in a distinct 5' UTR and cause translation initiation at a downstream start codon, compared to variant 1. The encoded protein (isoform 3) is shorter than isoform 1.
