Function:
Responsible for the degradation of GM2 gangliosides, and a variety of other molecules containing terminal N-acetyl hexosamines, in the brain and other tissues. The form B is active against certain oligosaccharides. The form S has no measurable activity.
Involvement in Disease:
GM2-gangliosidosis 1: An autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease marked by the accumulation of GM2 gangliosides in the neuronal cells. It is characterized by GM2 gangliosides accumulation in the absence of HEXA activity, leading to neurodegeneration and, in the infantile form, death in early childhood. It exists in several forms: infantile (most common and most severe), juvenile and ***** (late-onset).
Sequence Similarities:
Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 20 family.
Post-Translational Modification:
N-linked glycan at Asn-115 consists of Man(3)-GlcNAc(2).
