Hyaluronidase-1 (HYAL1) (N-Term) Peptide

This is a synthetic peptide designed for use in combination with anti-HYAL1 antibody ( ARP50812_P050). It may block above mentioned antibody from binding to its target protein in western blot and/or immunohistochecmistry under proper experimental settings. There is no guarantee for its use in other applications. Please inquire for more details.

Background Information: HYAL1 is a lysosomal hyaluronidase. 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. This enzyme is active at an acidic pH and is the major hyaluronidase in plasma. Mutations in HYAL1 are associated with mucopolysaccharidosis type IX, or hyaluronidase deficiency. HYAL1 is one of several related genes in a region of chromosome 3p21.3 associated with tumor suppression. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for HYAL1.This gene encodes a lysosomal hyaluronidase.
