Gene: [20q131/CTSA] cathepsin A (carboxypeptidase C); neuraminidase/beta-galactosidase protective protein; galactosialidosis (Goldberg syndrome);
FUN | The lysosomal protective protein is essential for both the activity of beta-galactosidase and neuraminidase, it associates with these enzymes and exerts a protective function necessary for their stability and activity. This protein is also a carboxypeptidase with a broad specificity and can deamidates tachykinins." |
MEB | Heterodimer of a 32 kD and 20 kD chains linked by disulfide bonds. |
FAG | [1] On
beta-galactosidase see GEM:03p2133/GLB1.
