Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * EXT2 is a transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of approximately 150 kDa. * It is expressed in a variety of cell types, including neurons, astrocytes, and endothelial cells. * EXT2 is a key regulator of exostosin production and secretion. * It is also involved in the regulation of cell migration and adhesion. **Pathways and functions:** * EXT2 is involved in the synthesis of exostoses, which are glycoproteins that are found in the extracellular matrix. * Exostoses are important for a variety of cellular processes, including cell migration, adhesion, and signaling. * They are also involved in the formation of the extracellular matrix. * EXT2 is a key regulator of these processes, and its overexpression has been linked to a number of diseases. **Clinical significance:** * EXT2 is a gene that is frequently mutated in humans. * Mutations in EXT2 have been linked to a number of diseases, including exostoses and cancer. * These diseases are characterized by the formation of soft, abnormal tissues that can lead to a variety of symptoms, including joint pain, swelling, and difficulty walking. **Additional information:** * EXT2 is a member of the EXT family of glycosyltransferases. * It is expressed in high levels in the brain, particularly in the cortex. * It is also expressed in the eyes, ears, nose, and throat. * EXT2 is a highly conserved protein, with similar genes found in other mammals.
