Hyaluronan is synthesized, secreted, and anchored by hyaluronan synthases (HAS) at the plasma membrane. Cellular process localization of glutamate transporters is hyaluronan synthase dependent, while a major hyaluronan receptor CD44 is not necessary. Hyaluronan synthesized by hyaluronan synthase interacts with glutamate transporters and supports glutamate uptake. Our findings reveal that hyaluronan synthesis helps to turn off excitatory signals.
