c.1234C>T Missense 0.01% p.Pro412Ser; unknown significance
c.567delA Frameshift <0.01% Predicted loss of function
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Frameshift mutations leading to premature stop codons reduce hyaluronidase activity.

Gain of Function (GOF)

Not well characterized; overexpression in cancer suggests potential gain-of-function effects.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No evidence currently available.

Gene Ontology (GO)

• hyaluronidase activity • extracellular matrix disassembly
• cell migration • hyaluronic acid binding

Pathways

Hyaluronan degradation
Extracellular matrix organization

Protein Summary

CEMIP2 is a 150 kDa transmembrane protein with hyaluronidase activity, localized to the plasma membrane and endosomes. It cleaves hyaluronic acid into smaller fragments, facilitating cell motility and tissue remodeling.
