'''Saposin''' (Sap) is a small protein which functions as activator of lipid-degrading enzymes.  They act by isolating the lipid substrate from the membrane.  Sap is synthesized as a precursor – prosaposin – which contain 4 SapB active domains and 2 SapA domains which are cleaved off.  For more details see [[Molecular Playground/Saposin C]].
