General annotation (Comments)

Catalytic activity

Hydrolysis of terminal, non-reducing alpha-D-galactose residues in alpha-D-galactosides, including galactose oligosaccharides, galactomannans and galactohydrolase.

Homodimer. Ref.12

Subcellular location

Lysosome.

Involvement in disease

Defects in GLA are the cause of Fabry disease (FD) [MIM:301500]. FD is a rare X-linked sphingolipidosis disease where glycolipid accumulates in many tissues. The disease consists of an inborn error of glycosphingolipid catabolism. FD patients show systemic accumulation of globotriaoslyceramide (Gb3) and related glycosphingolipids in the plasma and cellular lysosomes throughout the body. Clinical recognition in males results from characteristic skin lesions (angiokeratomas) over the lower trunk. Patients may show ocular deposits, febrile episodes, and burning pain in the extremities. Death results from renal failure, cardiac or cerebral complications of hypertension or other vascular disease. Heterozygous females may exhibit the disorder in an attenuated form, they are more likely to show corneal opacities.

Biotechnological use

Used to convert blood group antigens of type B into type O, the universal donor type.

Pharmaceutical use

Available under the names Replagal (Transkaryotic Therapies) and Fabrazyme (Genzyme). Used as a long-term enzyme replacement therapy in patients with a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 27 family.

RNA editing

Edited at position 396.
