Target Description: Hyaluronidase degrades hyaluronic acid, a major structural proteoglycan found in extracellular matrices and basement membranes. Six members of the hyaluronidase family are clustered into two tightly linked groups on chromosome 3p21.3 and 7q31.3. This gene was previously referred to as HYAL1 and HYA1 and has since been assigned the official symbol SPAM1; another family member on chromosome 3p21.3 has been assigned HYAL1. This gene encodes a GPI-anchored enzyme located on the human sperm surface and inner acrosomal membrane. This multifunctional protein is a hyaluronidase that enables sperm to penetrate through the hyaluronic acid-rich cumulus cell layer surrounding the oocyte, a receptor that plays a role in hyaluronic acid induced cell signaling, and a receptor that is involved in sperm-zona pellucida adhesion. Abnormal expression of this gene in tumors has implicated this protein in degradation of basement membranes leading to tumor invasion and metastasis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Uniprot Description
SPAM1: 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. Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 56 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Glycan Metabolism - glycosaminoglycan degradation; Hydrolase; EC 3.2.1.35; Membrane protein, GPI anchor; Cell surface
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 7q31.3
Cellular Component: plasma membrane
Molecular Function: hyalurononglucosaminidase activity
Biological Process: sperm-egg recognition; fusion of sperm to egg plasma membrane; binding of sperm to zona pellucida; single fertilization; carbohydrate metabolic process; cell adhesion; multicellular organism reproduction

Product Notes
The SPAM1 spam1 (Catalog #AAA3216352) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The SPAM1 Antibody - middle region reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's SPAM1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SPAM1 spam1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. The amino acid sequence is listed below: Synthetic peptide located within the following region: QQQNVQLSLT EATEKAKQEF EKAGKDFLVE TIKLGKLLRP NHLWGYYLFP. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SPAM1, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
