TMEM2 Protein, Mouse, Recombinant (His)

Cell surface hyaluronidase that mediates the initial cleavage of extracellular high-molecular-weight hyaluronan into intermediate-size hyaluronan of approximately 5 kDa fragments. Acts as a regulator of angiogenesis and heart morphogenesis by mediating degradation of extracellular hyaluronan, thereby regulating VEGF signaling. Is very specific to hyaluronan; not able to cleave chondroitin sulfate or dermatan sulfate.
