Name Non-lysosomal glucosylceramidase
Synonyms
  1. Beta-glucocerebrosidase 2
  2. Beta-glucosidase 2
  3. Glucosylceramidase 2
  4. NLGase
Gene Name GBA2
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in catalytic activity
Specific Function Non-lysosomal glucosylceramidase that catalyzes the conversion of glucosylceramide to free glucose and ceramide. Involved in sphingomyelin generation and prevention of glycolipid accumulation. May also catalyze the hydrolysis of bile acid 3-O-glucosides, however, the relevance of such activity is unclear in vivo.
