Summary: Enables galactosylceramidase activity. Predicted to be involved in galactosylceramide catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within lipid catabolic process and sphingolipid metabolic process. Located in lysosome. Is expressed in central nervous system; cerebellum; hindbrain; midbrain; and midbrain hindbrain boundary. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Krabbe disease. Orthologous to human GALC (galactosylceramidase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
