Hpse - heparanase Gene
Also Known as Hpa; HSE1; Hpr1
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
This gene encodes an endoglucuronidase enzyme that plays an important role in tumor invasion and metastasis. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate an active heterodimeric enzyme that cleaves the heparan sulfate proteoglycans associated with the cell surface and extracellular matrix. Mice lacking the encoded protein do not show any prominent pathological alterations under normal conditions but fail to develop albuminuria and renal damage in response to drug-induced diabetes.
