Description

Ensembl ID ENSG00000197746 Gene ID 5660 Accession 9498
Symbol PSAP Alias GLBA;SAP1;SAP2;PSAPD;PARK24 Full Name prosaposin
Status Confidence Length 34954 bases Strand Minus strand
Position 10 : 71816298 - 71851251 RNA binding domain N.A.
Summary This gene encodes a highly conserved preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate four main cleavage products including saposins A, B, C, and D. Each domain of the precursor protein is approximately 80 amino acid residues long with nearly identical placement of cysteine residues and glycosylation sites. Saposins A-D localize primarily to the lysosomal compartment where they facilitate the catabolism of glycosphingolipids with short oligosaccharide groups. The precursor protein exists both as a secretory protein and as an integral membrane protein and has neurotrophic activities. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Gaucher disease and metachromatic leukodystrophy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes an isoform that is proteolytically processed. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
