Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables chondroitin hydrolase activity and hyalurononglucosaminidase activity. Involved in chondroitin sulfate catabolic process; hyaluronan catabolic process; and response to virus. Acts upstream of or within embryonic skeletal joint morphogenesis. Is active in lysosome. Is expressed in liver; metanephros; and renal tubule. Used to study mucopolysaccharidosis IX. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in mucopolysaccharidosis and mucopolysaccharidosis IX. Orthologous to human HYAL1 (hyaluronidase 1).
