Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 57704
Gene name Glucosylceramidase beta 2
Gene symbol GBA2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
AD035NLGaseSPG46
Chromosome 9
Chromosome location 9p13.3
Summary This gene encodes a microsomal beta-glucosidase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of bile acid 3-O-glucosides as endogenous compounds. Studies to determine subcellular localization of this protein in the liver indicated that the enzyme was mainly enriched in
