== Disease ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PPGB_HUMAN PPGB_HUMAN] Defects in CTSA are the cause of galactosialidosis (GSL) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/256540 256540]. A lysosomal storage disease associated with a combined deficiency of beta-galactosidase and neuraminidase, secondary to a defect in cathepsin A. All patients have clinical manifestations typical of a lysosomal disorder, such as coarse facies, cherry red spots, vertebral changes, foam cells in the bone marrow, and vacuolated lymphocytes. Three phenotypic subtypes are recognized. The early infantile form is associated with fetal hydrops, edema, ascites, visceromegaly, skeletal dysplasia, and early death. The late infantile type is characterized by hepatosplenomegaly, growth retardation, cardiac involvement, and a normal or mildly affected mental state. The juvenile/adult form is characterized by myoclonus, ataxia, angiokeratoma, mental retardation, neurologic deterioration, absence of visceromegaly, and long survival.<ref>PMID:1756715</ref> <ref>PMID:8514852</ref> <ref>PMID:8968752</ref> <ref>PMID:10944848</ref> 
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PPGB_HUMAN PPGB_HUMAN] Protective protein appears to be essential for both the activity of beta-galactosidase and neuraminidase, it associates with these enzymes and exerts a protective function necessary for their stability and activity. This protein is also a carboxypeptidase and can deamidate tachykinins.<ref>PMID:1907282</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Human Cathepsin A (CatA) is a lysosomal serine carboxypeptidase of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and is structurally similar to acetylcholinesterase (AChE). CatA can remove the C-terminal amino acids of endothelin I, angiotensin I, Substance P, oxytocin, and bradykinin, and can deamidate neurokinin A. Proteomic studies identified CatA and its homologue SCPEP1 as potential targets of organophosphates (OP). CatA could be stably inhibited by low microM to high nM concentrations of racemic sarin (GB), soman (GD), cyclosarin (GF), VX, and VR within minutes to hours at pH 7. Cyclosarin was the most potent with a kinetically measured dissociation constant (KI) of 2 microM followed by VR (KI = 2.8 microM). Bimolecular rate constants for inhibition by cyclosarin and VR were 1.3 x 10(3) M(-1)sec(-1) and 1.2 x 10(3) M(-1)sec(-1), respectively, and were approximately 3-orders of magnitude lower than those of human AChE indicating slower reactivity. Notably, both AChE and CatA bound diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) comparably and had KI(DFP) = 13 microM and 11 microM, respectively. At low pH, greater than 85% of the enzyme spontaneously reactivated after OP inhibition, conditions under which OP-adducts of cholinesterases irreversibly age. At pH 6.5 CatA remained stably inhibited by GB and GF and &lt;10% of the enzyme spontaneously reactivated after 200 h. A crystal structure of DFP-inhibited CatA was determined and contained an aged adduct. Similar to AChE, CatA appears to have a "backdoor" for product release. CatA has not been shown previously to age. These results may have implications for: OP-associated inflammation; cardiovascular effects; and the dysregulation of RAS enzymes by OP.
