Anti-Hyaluronidase-3 HYAL3 Antibody Picoband®, APC Conjugate

HYAL3 (hyaluronoglucosaminidase 3) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the HYAL3 gene, also known as LUCA3, Hyaluronidase-3, Lung carcinoma protein 3, LUCA-3, LUCA14, Minna14. By Northern blot analysis, expression of a 2.1-kb HYAL3 transcript that was strongest in testis and bone marrow, but relatively weak in other organs. HYAL3 encodes a predicted 417-amino acid protein. 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 though to be involved in cell proliferation, migration and differentiation. However, this protein has not yet been shown to have hyaluronidase activity. The gene is one of several related genes in a region of chromosome 3p21.3 associated with tumor suppression.

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human HYAL3, different from the related rat sequence by three amino acids, and different from the related mouse sequence by one amino acid.

Tyrosine-protein kinase that acts downstream of cell surface receptors and plays a role in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton, microtubule assembly, cell attachment and cell spreading. Plays a role in FCER1 (high affinity immunoglobulin epsilon receptor)-mediated signaling in mast cells. Acts down- stream of the activated FCER1 receptor and the mast/stem cell growth factor receptor KIT. Plays a role in the regulation of mast cell degranulation. Plays a role in the regulation of cell differentiation and promotes neurite outgrowth in response to NGF signaling. Plays a role in cell scattering and cell migration in response to HGF-induced activation of EZR. Phosphorylates BCR and down-regulates BCR kinase activity. Phosphorylates HCLS1/HS1, PECAM1, STAT3 and TRIM28. .
