CTSA
-
Official Full Name
cathepsin A
-
Overview
This gene encodes a glycoprotein which associates with lysosomal enzymes beta-galactosidase and neuraminidase to form a complex of high molecular weight multimers. The formation of this complex provides a protective role for stability and activity. Deficiencies in this gene are linked to multiple forms of galactosialidosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. -

Q&As (7)
Ask a questionPost-translational modifications of CTSA are not well-documented, requiring further research for comprehensive understanding.
CTSA has roles in various cellular processes outside the lysosome, though these are less well understood compared to its lysosomal functions.
CTSA is crucial for the catabolism of glycoproteins, aiding in the removal of terminal sugar moieties.
Therapeutic strategies for CTSA-related disorders are in the early stages of development, with enzyme replacement therapy being a potential avenue.
Dysfunction or deficiency in CTSA leads to Galactosialidosis, characterized by the accumulation of sialyloligosaccharides and glycoproteins in tissues.
It forms a complex with β-galactosidase and neuraminidase, preventing their premature degradation and facilitating their activation.
CTSA acts as a protective protein, ensuring the stability and proper function of other lysosomal enzymes.
