High impact information on PSAP

  • Saposins A, B, C, and D are a group of homologous glycoproteins derived from a single precursor, prosaposin, and apparently involved in the stimulation of the enzymatic degradation of sphingolipids in lysosomes [1].
  • Physical and genetic mapping of the prosaposin gene (PSAP) to bovine chromosome 28 [2].
