Specifications
Target Information
Rat Galactosylceramidase (GALC) is a lysosomal enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of galactosylceramide and psychosine. It is essential for the breakdown of these sphingolipids, which are major components of myelin in the nervous system and various tissues. GALC plays a crucial role in maintaining lipid homeostasis and ensuring proper cellular function. Deficiencies in GALC activity are associated with severe demyelinating diseases, highlighting its importance in neural and tissue health. This enzyme is vital for the normal metabolism of sphingolipids and the prevention of lipid accumulation.
