Summary
Enables identical protein binding activity. Involved in central nervous system myelination and positive regulation of oligodendrocyte differentiation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Used to study Canavan disease and essential tremor. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Canavan disease. Orthologous to human ASPA (aspartoacylase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
