Gene Symbol | HYAL4 |
Entrez Gene ID | 23553 |
Full Name | hyaluronoglucosaminidase 4 |
Synonyms | CSHY |
General protein information |

Gene Type | protein-coding |
Organism | Homo sapiens(human) |
Genome | |
Summary | This gene encodes a protein which is similar in structure to hyaluronidases. Hyaluronidases intracellularly degrade hyaluronan, one of the major glycosaminoglycans of the extracellular matrix. Hyaluronan is thought to be involved in cell proliferation, migration and differentiation. However, this protein has not yet been shown to have hyaluronidase activity.
