Cathepsin A is an enzyme that is classified both as a cathepsin and a carboxypeptidase. In humans, it is encoded by the CTSA gene.[5]

Function

This gene encodes a glycoprotein that associates with lysosomal enzymes

β-galactosidase and neuraminidase.[6]

Clinical significance

Deficiencies in this gene are linked to multiple forms of galactosialidosis.[5]

Interactions

Cathepsin A has been shown to

NEU1.[7]
