General annotation (Comments)

Function

Involved in sperm-egg adhesion. Upon fertilization sperm must first penetrate a layer of cumulus cells that surrounds the egg before reaching the zona pellucida. The cumulus cells are embedded in a matrix containing hyaluronic acid which is formed prior to ovulation. This protein aids in penetrating the layer of cumulus cells by digesting hyaluronic acid. Ref.2

Catalytic activity

Random hydrolysis of (1->4)-linkages between N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosamine and D-glucuronate residues in hyaluronate.

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Lipid-anchorGPI-anchor.

Tissue specificity

Testis. Ref.1

Post-translational modification

N-glycosylated. Ref.5

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 56 family.
