Protein name Exostosin-like 2 (EC 2.4.1.223) (Alpha-1,4-N-acetylhexosaminyltransferase EXTL2) (Alpha-GalNAcT EXTL2) (EXT-related protein 2) (Glucuronyl-galactosyl-proteoglycan 4-alpha-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase) [Cleaved into: Processed exostosin-like 2]
Protein function Glycosyltransferase required for the biosynthesis of heparan-sulfate and responsible for the alternating addition of beta-1-4-linked glucuronic acid (GlcA) and alpha-1-4-linked N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) units to nascent heparan sulfate chains
