Description
NAGA, also known as alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase, is a lysosomal exoglycosidase that cleaves terminal alpha-N-acetylgalactosamine residues from glycopeptides and glycolipids. It is hardly expected to cause an allergic reaction in Fabry disease patients. It is highly promising as a new and safe enzyme for ERT for Fabry disease. Recombinant human NAGA, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in insect cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques
