簡要描述：HAS1, HAS2 and HAS3 are HA Synthase proteins that synthesize HA (Hyaluronan or hyaluronic acid). The extracellular matrix in most vertebrates express HA, which is a high molecular weight linear polysaccharide composed of alternating glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine residues linked by beta-1,3 and beta-1,4 glycosidic bonds. The three HAS genes show distinct patterns of expression during development and their protein products play significantly different roles in the formation of the H
