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. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa36-490 from human Hyaluronidase PH-20, fused to 6X His-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E.coli.
