GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
NAGA (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
D22S674
Description
N-acetylgalactosaminidase, alpha- (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
NAGA encodes the lysosomal enzyme alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase, which cleaves alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminyl moieties from glycoconjugates. Mutations in NAGA have been identified as the cause of Schindler disease types I and II (type II also known as Kanzaki disease). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
