Basic gene annotations are collected from Uniprot and displayed with links to original sources. A quick link to explore the genomic context with Uniprot Browser is available.
ASPA - aspartoacylase
Function
Catalyzes the deacetylation of N-acetylaspartic acid (NAA) to produce acetate and L-aspartate. NAA occurs in high concentration in brain and its hydrolysis NAA plays a significant part in the maintenance of intact white matter. In other tissues it acts as a scavenger of NAA from body fluids.
