Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.2.0)
Enables glucosylceramidase activity; glucosyltransferase activity; and steryl-beta-glucosidase activity. Involved in several processes, including glucosylceramide catabolic process; lipid glycosylation; and regulation of protein polymerization. Located in Golgi membrane; cytosol; and endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; epidermis; liver; and neural retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hereditary spastic paraplegia 46. Orthologous to human GBA2 (glucosylceramidase beta 2).
