GNS Polyclonal Antibody, AbBy Fluor™ 488 Conjugated

GNS is a 552 amino acid lysosomal enzyme that hydrolyzes the 6-sulfate groups of the N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 6-sulfate units of keratan sulfate and heparan sulfate. A member of the sulfatase family, GNS assists in the catabolism of heparin, and binds calcium as a cofactor. GNS deficiency results in an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder known as mucopolysaccharidosis type IIID (Sanfilippo D syndrome), which is characterized by mild somatic disease and severe degeneration of the central nervous system. Subject to post-translational internal peptidase cleavage, GNS is encoded by a gene mapping to human chromosome 12q14.2 and mouse chromosome 10 D2.
