Hyaluronan synthase 2 Products

The HAS2 gene encodes a 552 amino acid long, 63 kDA hyaluronan synthase 2 protein that functions in hyaluronan/hyaluronic acid (HA) synthesis which is critical to the extracellular matrix. HAS2 is involved in hyaluronan metabolism, MPSII (Hunter syndrome), and MPS VI (Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome). HAS2 is also linked to arthropathy, fibrosarcoma, endometrial cancer, osteoarthritis, myeloma, benign tumors, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and colon carcinoma.
