| Gene Symbol | GAA |
| Gene Full Name | glucosidase, alpha; acid |
| Background | 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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
| Function | Essential for the degradation of glygogen to glucose in lysosomes. [UniProt] |
| Cellular Localization | Lysosome. Lysosome membrane. [UniProt] |
| PTM | The different forms of acid glucosidase are obtained by proteolytic processing. Phosphorylation of mannose residues ensures efficient transport of the enzyme to the lysosomes via the mannose 6-phosphate receptor. [UniProt] |
