Predicted to enable serine-type carboxypeptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in proteolysis. Located in membrane raft. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in galactosialidosis. Is an ortholog of human CTSA (cathepsin A).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
