Gene Information

human ... GAA(2548)

General description

Lysosomal alpha-glucosidase (GAA) is a glycoprotein that belongs to the glycoside hydrolase family GH31. It comprises a catalytic GH31 (β/α)8 barrel domain, trefoil type-P domain, an N-terminal β-sheet domain. The GAA gene is mapped to human chromosome location 17q25.3.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human GAA

Application

Anti-GAA antibody produced in rabbit has been used western blotting (1:100)

Biochem/physiol Actions

GAA is acid alpha-glucosidase, which is essential for the degradation of glycogen to glucose in lysosomes. Different forms of acid alpha-glucosidase are obtained by proteolytic processing. Defects in this gene are the cause of glycogen storage disease II, also known as Pompe′s disease, which is an autosomal recessive disorder with a broad clinical spectrum. This gene encodes acid alpha-glucosidase, which is essential for the degradation of glycogen to glucose in lysosomes. Different forms of acid alpha-glucosidase are obtained by proteolytic processing. Defects in this gene are the cause of glycogen storage disease II, also known as Pompe′s disease, which is an autosomal recessive disorder with a broad clinical spectrum. Three transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
