additional information | residues Glu225 and Glu343 are critical in its catalytic mechanism. Two heparan sulfate binding sites are formed by Lys158-Asp171 and Gln270-Lys280 | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | heparanase is an endoglycosidase that specifically degrades heparan sulfate, one of the main components of the extracellular matrix. Heparanase is implicated in cancer processes such as tumour formation, angiogenesis and metastasis | Homo sapiens |
