ASPA Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 336 amino acids (1-313) and having a molecular mass of 38.1kDa.ASPA is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Aspartoacylase is a homodimer which catalyzes the deacetylation of N-acetylaspartic acid (NAA) (a protein whose hydrolysis is crucial to maintenance of intact white matter) to generate acetate and L-aspartate. Aspartoacylase (ASPA) is expressed in the liver, lung and kidney tissue, as well as in the skeletal muscle and in cerebral white matter. NAA is ample in the brain where hydrolysis by aspartoacylase is believed to aid maintain white matter. In other tissues ASPA functions as a scavenger of NAA from body fluids. ASPA gene mutations cause Canavan disease (CAND or spongy degeneration of the brain).
