Other Information

**Key Characteristics** HYAL2 is a member of the hyaluronidase family, which consists of enzymes that cleave hyaluronic acid. The HYAL2 enzyme has a high specificity for hyaluronic acid, with a Km value of 0.1 mM. The gene is located on chromosome 11q13.3 and is highly conserved across species, suggesting its essential role in cellular processes. **Pathways and Functions** HYAL2 is involved in various cellular processes, including: 1. **Cell migration**: HYAL2 helps to break down hyaluronic acid, allowing cells to migrate through the extracellular matrix. 2. **Cell proliferation**: HYAL2 regulates cell growth by controlling the availability of hyaluronic acid, a key component of the extracellular matrix. 3. **Differentiation**: HYAL2 influences the differentiation of cells, particularly in embryonic tissues. 4. **Immune responses**: HYAL2 is involved in the regulation of immune responses, including the activation of immune cells and the production of inflammatory cytokines. 5. **Endothelial function**: HYAL2 regulates endothelial cell function, including the regulation of blood vessel formation and maintenance. **Clinical Significance** Dysregulation of HYAL2 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Cancer**: HYAL2 overexpression has been linked to cancer progression and metastasis. 2. **Arthritis**: HYAL2 deficiency has been associated with arthritis, as the breakdown of hyaluronic acid contributes to joint inflammation and damage. 3. **Cardiovascular disease**: HYAL2 dysregulation has been linked to cardiovascular disease, including atherosclerosis and cardiac remodeling. 4. **Neurological disorders**: HYAL2 has been implicated in neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease and multiple sclerosis. In conclusion, HYAL2 is a critical gene involved in various cellular processes, including cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of further research into the role of HYAL2 in human health and disease.
