Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
gene HAS1, recombinant expression of GFP-tagged isozyme HAS1 in MCF-7 cells, MCF-7 cells transfected with Dendra-Has1 show intense fluorescence in perinuclear vesicular structures resembling the Golgi apparatus. The MCF-7 cells transfected with EGFP-Has1 produce a pericellular hyaluronan coat, which is attached the synthase itself Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information HAS1-transfected MCF-7cells show very little cell surface hyaluronan, but a large hyaluronan coat is seen in cells grown in 20 mM glucose and 1 mM glucosamine, or treated with interleukin-1beta, TNF-alpha, or TGF-beta. The coats are mostly removed by the presence of hyaluronan hexasaccharides, or Hermes1 antibody, indicating that they depend on the CD44 receptor, which is, in contrast to the coat produced by HAS3, remaining attached to HAS3 itself Homo sapiens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function hyaluronan is a ubiquitous glycosaminoglycan involved in embryonic development, inflammation and cancer. In mammals, three hyaluronan synthase isoenzymes (HAS1-3) inserted in the plasma membrane produce hyaluronan directly on the cell surface. Isozyme hyaluronan synthase 1 (HAS1) produces a cytokine-and glucose-inducible, CD44-dependent cell surface coat Homo sapiens
