Background Information
Galactosylceramidase (Galc) is a lysosomal enzyme involved in the catabolism of galactosylceramide, a major lipid in myelin, kidney, and epithelial cells of the small intestine and colon. The normal GALC mRNA encodes the 80 kDa precursor, which is processed into 50 and 30 kDa subunits. Mutation of GALC gene will lead to Krabbe disease (globoid cell leukodystrophy), an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder that affects both the central and peripheral nervous system due to an enzymatic defect of galactocerebrosidase.
