Gene ID2717
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namegalactosidase, alpha
Gene SymbolGLA
SynonymsGALA
Alternate namesalpha-galactosidase A; melibiase; alpha-gal A; agalsidase alfa; alpha-D-galactosidase A; alpha-D-galactoside galactohydrolase 1

EC Number3.2.1.22
SummaryThis gene encodes a homodimeric glycoprotein that hydrolyses the terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins. This enzyme predominantly hydrolyzes ceramide trihexoside, and it can catalyze the hydrolysis of melibiose into galactose and glucose. A variety of mutations in this gene affect the synthesis, processing, and stability of this enzyme, which causes Fabry disease, a rare lysosomal storage disorder that results from a failure to catabolize alpha-D-galactosyl glycolipid moieties.
