Differential Regulation of Hyaluronan Synthesis by Three Isoforms of Hyaluronan Synthases in Mammalian Cells

open access: yesBiomolecules
Hyaluronan (HA) is one of the crucial components of the extracellular matrix in vertebrates and is synthesized by three hyaluronan synthases (HASs), namely HAS1, HAS2, and HAS3. The low expression level of HASs in normal keratinocytes and other various types of cells presents a recognized challenge, impeding biological and pathological research on ...

An engineered hyaluronan synthase: characterization for recombinant human hyaluronan synthase 2 Escherichia coli.

open access: yesThe Journal of biological chemistry, 2004
The Class I hyaluronan synthase (HAS) is a unique glycosyltransferase synthesizing hyaluronan (HA), a polysaccharide composed of GlcUA and GlcNAc, by using one catalytic domain that elongates two different monosaccharides. As for the synthetic mechanism, there are two alternative manners for the sugar elongation process.

Transcriptional regulation of the human hyaluronan synthase genes: focus on hyaluronan synthase 2 [PDF]

open access: yes
This thesis examines the transcriptional regulation of the human hyaluronan synthase (HAS) genes, with particular focus on hyaluronan synthase 2. The data details the reconstruction of the genomic structures of each HAS isoform for the first time, as well as analysis of the activity of each HAS proximal promoter.
