About Aspa

Summary

Enables identical protein binding activity. Involved in central nervous system myelination and positive regulation of oligodendrocyte differentiation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Used to study Canavan disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Canavan disease. Orthologous to human ASPA (aspartoacylase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
