From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
N-acetylgalactosaminidase, alpha-, also known as NAGA, is a human gene.[1]
NAGA encodes the lysosomal enzyme alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase, which cleaves alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminyl moieties from glycoconjugates. Mutations in NAGA have been identified as the cause of Schindler disease types I and II (type II also known as Kanzaki disease).[1]
