Summary

HYAL1 (hyaluronidase 1, HGNC:5320) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 3p21.31, encoding Hyaluronidase-1 (Q12794). May have a role in promoting tumor progression.

This gene encodes 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 this gene are associated with mucopolysaccharidosis type IX, or hyaluronidase deficiency. The gene 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 this gene.

Disease relevance. Mucopolysaccharidosis 9 (MPS9) [MIM:601492] A form of mucopolysaccharidosis, a group of lysosomal storage diseases characterized by defective degradation of glycosaminoglycans, resulting in their excessive accumulation and secretion. The diseases are progressive and often display a wide spectrum of clinical severity. MPS9 is an autosomal recessive form characterized by high hyaluronan concentration in the serum. Clinical features include periarticular soft tissue masses, mild short stature and acetabular erosions, and absence of neurological or visceral involvement. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
