EXTL2
exostosin like glycosyltransferase 2

Enables alpha-1,4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase activity and glucuronyl-galactosyl-proteoglycan 4-alpha-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. Involved in N-acetylglucosamine metabolic process and UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine metabolic process. Located in cytosol; endoplasmic reticulum; and nucleoplasm.

EXTL2 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating EXTL2 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for EXTL2. The Binding column indicates whether any binding evidence exists for this TF–gene pair (ChIP-seq or motif footprint peaks). The Mean coef is the average Perturb-seq regression coefficient across active gRNAs (positive = EXTL2 upregulated upon KD; negative = downregulated). The Outlier column indicates whether this gene is in the top or bottom 5% of all TF knockdown effects.

Elements linked to EXTL2

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of EXTL2, linked by TSS proximity or chromatin conformation (Multiome / HiCAR). Each element overlaps at least one TF ChIP-seq binding site — the TFs column shows how many distinct TFs bind that element.
