Structure of the human heparan sulfate polymerase complex EXT1-EXT2 [PDF]
Heparan sulfates are long and complex polysaccharides that mediate a large number of biological processes at the cell surface. Here, the authors provide structural and functional insights into the human EXT1-EXT2 complex that carries out the ...

Three Novel EXT1 and EXT2 Gene Mutations in Taiwanese Patients with Multiple Exostoses
Multiple osteochondromatosis, also known as hereditary multiple exostoses (HME), is an inherited autoso-mal dominant disorder characterized by the presence of multiple exostoses on the long bones.

Mutation spectrum of EXT1 and EXT2 in the Saudi patients with hereditary multiple exostoses [PDF]
Background Hereditary Multiple Exostoses (HME), also known as Multiple Osteochondromas (MO) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by multiple benign cartilaginous bone tumors, which are caused by mutations in the genes for exostosin ...

Breakpoint characterization of large deletions in
Background Osteochondromas (cartilage-capped bone tumors) are by far the most commonly treated of all primary benign bone tumors (50%). In 15% of cases, these tumors occur in the context of a hereditary syndrome called multiple osteochondromas (MO), an ...

Hsa_Circ_0008035 drives immune evasion of gastric cancer via promoting EXT1-mediated nuclear translocation of PKM2 [PDF]
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to be associated with the malignant phenotypes of cancer. However, the role and underlying mechanism of hsa_Circ_0008035 in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear. In this study, we elucidated the pivotal role

Cases report: Mosaic structural variants of the EXT1 gene in previously genetically unconfirmed multiple osteochondromas [PDF]
Multiple osteochondromas (MO) is a rare autosomal dominant skeletal disorder characterized by the development of multiple benign tumors known as osteochondromas. The condition is predominantly caused by loss-of-function variants in the EXT1 or EXT2 genes,

Mutations in the EXT1 and EXT2 Genes in Hereditary Multiple Exostoses [PDF]
Hereditary multiple exostoses (EXT; MIM 133700) is an autosomal dominant bone disorder characterized by the presence of multiple benign cartilage-capped tumors (exostoses). Besides suffering complications caused by the pressure of these exostoses on the surrounding tissues, EXT patients are at an increased risk for malignant chondrosarcoma, which may ...

The Role of EXT1 in Nonhereditary Osteochondroma: Identification of Homozygous Deletions [PDF]
Multiple osteochondromas is a hereditary syndrome that is characterized by the formation of cartilage-capped bony neoplasms (osteochondromas), for which exostosis (multiple)-1 (EXT1) has been identified as a causative gene. However, 85% of all osteochondromas present as solitary (nonhereditary) lesions in which somatic mutations in EXT1 are extremely ...
