Enables beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase activity. Involved in N-glycan processing and rhodopsin biosynthetic process. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; adult heart; embryonic anal pad; gut section; and larval imaginal tissue. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Sandhoff disease; Tay-Sachs disease; and spinal muscular atrophy.
