      Official symbol:  CTSA
      Full name:  cathepsin A
      Location:  20q13.12
      Also known as:  PPGB, GSL
      Entrez ID:  5476
      Ensembl ID:  ENSG00000064601
      Summary:  This gene encodes a member of the peptidase S10 family of serine carboxypeptidases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate two chains that comprise the heterodimeric active enzyme. This enzyme possesses deamidase, esterase and carboxypeptidase activities and acts as a scaffold in the lysosomal multienzyme complex. Mutations in this gene are associated with galactosialidosis.
