Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable alpha-L-fucosidase activity and carbohydrate binding activity. Predicted to be involved in fucose metabolic process and glycoside catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within lipid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be active in lysosome. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cranium; genitourinary system; and heart. Used to study fucosidosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in fucosidosis. Orthologous to human FUCA1 (alpha-L-fucosidase 1).
