GM2-APGM2APSAP-3
|
| Chromosome | 5 |
| Chromosome location | 5q33.1 |
| Summary | This gene encodes a small glycolipid transport protein which acts as a substrate specific co-factor for the lysosomal enzyme beta-hexosaminidase A. Beta-hexosaminidase A, together with GM2 ganglioside activator, catalyzes the degradation of the gangliosid |
