Non-lysosomal glucosylceramidase

BE0020281ProteinHumansGBA2

Non-lysosomal glucosylceramidase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of glucosylceramides/GlcCers (such as beta-D-glucosyl-(1<->1')-N-acylsphing-4-enine) to free glucose and ceramides (such as N-acylsphing-4-enine) (PubMed:17105727, PubMed:30308956, PubMed:32144204). It is acted on by 3 drugs in DrugBank.
