Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 8692
Gene name Hyaluronidase 2
Gene symbol HYAL2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
LUCA2MCCS
Chromosome 3
Chromosome location 3p21.31
Summary This gene encodes a weak acid-active hyaluronidase. The encoded protein is similar in structure to other more active hyaluronidases. Hyaluronidases degrade hyaluronan, one of the major glycosaminoglycans of the extracellular matrix. Hyaluronan and fragmen
