Structure of the human heparan sulfate polymerase complex EXT1-EXT2 [PDF]

open access: greenNature Communications, 2022
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 ...

Mutation spectrum of EXT1 and EXT2 in the Saudi patients with hereditary multiple exostoses [PDF]

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
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 EXT1 or EXT2 in 10 Multiple Osteochondromas families [PDF]

open access: goldBMC Medical Genetics, 2011
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]

open access: yesTranslational Oncology
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]

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics
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]

open access: bronzeThe American Journal of Human Genetics, 1998
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]

open access: bronzeJNCI Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 2007
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 ...
