epitope corresponding to amino acids 47-272 mapping at the C-terminus of AGA of human origin
Modification Notes
AGA (aspartylglucosaminidase) is a 346 amino acid precursor protein that belongs to the Ntn-hydrolase family and is cleaved to produce an alpha chain and a beta chain. Localized to the lysosome, AGA functions as a heterotetramer composed of two alpha and two beta chains that work together to cleave the GlcNAc-Asn bond that joins oligosaccharides to target glycoproteins. Defects in the gene encoding AGA are the cause of aspartylglucosaminuria (AGU), a lysosomal storage disease that is characterized by severe mental retardation and mild connective tissue abnormalities. The gene encoding AGA maps to human chromosome 4, which encodes nearly 6% of the human genome and has the largest gene deserts (regions of the genome with no protein encoding genes) of all of the human chromosomes.
