Gene information for AGA (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID175
Official gene symbolAGA
Full nameaspartylglucosaminidase
Aliases,AGU,ASRG,GA,
Gene summaryAspartylglucosaminidase is involved in the catabolism of N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins. It cleaves asparagine from N-acetylglucosamines as one of the final steps in the lysosomal breakdown of glycoproteins. The lysosomal storage disease aspartylglycosaminuria is caused by a deficiency in the AGA enzyme. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified. [provided by RefSeq]
