Identification and Characterization of Rabbit Buccal Mucosal HyaluronidaseDepartment of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Shriners Burns Institute, Boston, Massachusetts 02114
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Shriners Burns Institute, Boston, Massachusetts 02114 This study establishes the existence of a mammalian buccal mucosal hyaluronidase having properties typical of a lysosomal enzyme. Mucosal hyaluronidase exhibited a distinct substrate preference for hyaluronic acid, generated saturated de-polymerization products by endoglycosidic hydrolysis, and possessed a pH optimum of 3.5 and an isoelectric point of 5.9.
