Gene information for NEU3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10825
Official gene symbolNEU3
Full namesialidase 3 (membrane sialidase)
Aliases,FLJ12388,SIAL3,
Gene summaryThis gene product belongs to a family of glycohydrolytic enzymes which remove sialic acid residues from glycoproteins and glycolipids. It is localized in the plasma membrane, and its activity is specific for gangliosides. It may play a role in modulating the ganglioside content of the lipid bilayer. [provided by RefSeq]
