glucosylceramidase

glucosylceramidase
glu·co·syl·cer·am·i·dase (gloo″ko-səl-sə-ramґĭ-dās) [EC 3.2.1.45] an enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the hydrolytic cleavage of glucose from glucocerebrosides to form ceramides, a reaction occurring in the lysosomal degradation of sphingolipids. Deficiency of enzyme activity, an autosomal recessive trait, results in Gaucher disease. Called also glucocerebrosidase.
