The EXT2 gene provides instructions for producing a protein called exostosin-2. This protein is found in a cell structure called the Golgi apparatus, which modifies newly produced enzymes and other proteins. In the Golgi apparatus, exostosin-2 binds to another protein, exostosin-1, to form a complex that modifies a protein called heparan sulfate.

Heparan sulfate is a complex of sugar molecules that is added to proteins. Heparan sulfate is involved in regulating a variety of body processes, including cell signaling, cell interactions, and immune system functions. Heparan sulfate is also involved in regulating bone formation (ossification) and the growth and specialization (differentiation) of cartilage-forming cells called chondrocytes. Cartilage is a tough, flexible tissue that makes up much of the skeleton during early development.
