Hyaluronidase from sheep testes, Type V, lyophilized powder, >=1,500 units/mg solid

Application

Hyaluronidase has been used:as a component of enzyme mix for the isolation of sertoli and germ cells from seminiferous tubulesin the pre-treatment of deparaffinized adenomas sections for immunohistochemistryin the digestion of umbilical cord blood vessel for the generation of umbilical cord stromal stem cell lines

Biochem/physiol Actions

These enzymes randomly cleave β-N-acetylhexosamine-(1−4)-glycosidic bonds in hyaluronic acid, chondroitin, and chondroitin sulfates.

Hyaluronidase from sheep testis is commercially used to depolymerise hyaluronic acid and chondroitin-sulphate in connective tissue and cartilage respectively.

General description

Hyaluronidase is present in high amount in testis as it aids fertilization of the mammalian egg. Mammalian hyaluronidase has a catalytic epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domain and a C-terminal cysteine rich region.
