- Overview
  - PSAP Human Recombinant produced in HEK cells is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain (a.a 17-524) containing a total of 518 amino acids, having a molecular mass of 57.7kDa (calculated), though it migrates at approximately 65kDa on SDS PAGE, the PSAP is fused to a 2 a.a N-terminal linker, a 2 a.a C-terminal linker and a 6 a.a His tag at C-Terminus. The Human PSAP is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Prosaposin (PSAP) is a precursor of 4 lysosomal saposin proteins (saposin A, B, C and D). Saposins are heat-stable glycoproteins which facilitate the catabolism of glycosphingolipids with short oligosaccharide groups. PSAP stimulates neurite outgrowth and increases choline acetyltransferase activity. Prosaposin exists both as a secretory protein and as an integral membrane protein and has neurotrophic activities. The secreted prosaposin is assumed to have additional functions in human milk, cerebrospinal fluid and seminal plasma. PSAP gene mutations are linked with Gaucher disease, Tay-Sachs disease, and metachromatic leukodystrophy.
