Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.1.0)
Enables alpha-N-acetylglucosaminidase activity and iron ion sequestering activity. Involved in heparan sulfate proteoglycan catabolic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; nervous system development; and proteoglycan metabolic process. Is active in lysosomal lumen. Used to study mucopolysaccharidosis III; mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB; and otitis media. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2V; mucopolysaccharidosis III; and mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB. Orthologous to human NAGLU (N-acetyl-alpha-glucosaminidase).
