Full Name
Hexosaminidase Subunit Alpha
Introduction
HEXA is a member of the glycosyl hydrolase 20 family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the alpha subunit of the lysosomal enzyme beta-hexosaminidase. HEXA, together with the cofactor GM2 activator protein, catalyzes the degradation of the ganglioside GM2, and other molecules containing terminal N-acetyl hexosamines. Mutations in HEXA lead to an accumulation of GM2 ganglioside in neurons, the underlying cause of neurodegenerative disorders termed the GM2 gangliosidoses, including Tay-Sachs disease (GM2-gangliosidosis type I).

Alternative Names
Hexosaminidase Subunit Alpha; N-Acetyl-Beta-Glucosaminidase Subunit Alpha; Beta-N-Acetylhexosaminidase Subunit Alpha; Hexosaminidase A (Alpha Polypeptide); Beta-Hexosaminidase Subunit Alpha; Hexosaminidase Subunit A
Function
Hydrolyzes the non-reducing end N-acetyl-D-hexosamine and/or sulfated N-acetyl-D-hexosamine of glycoconjugates, such as the oligosaccharide moieties from proteins and neutral glycolipids, or from certain mucopolysaccharides (PubMed:11707436, PubMed:9694901, PubMed:8672428, PubMed:8123671).

The isozyme S is as active as the isozyme A on the anionic bis-sulfated glycans, the chondroitin-6-sulfate trisaccharide (C6S-3), and the dermatan sulfate pentasaccharide, and the sulfated glycosphingolipid SM2 (PubMed:11707436).

The isozyme B does not hydrolyze each of these substrates, however hydrolyzes efficiently neutral oligosaccharide (PubMed:11707436).

Only the isozyme A is responsible for the degradation of GM2 gangliosides in the presence of GM2A (PubMed:9694901, PubMed:8672428, PubMed:8123671).

Involvement in disease
GM2-gangliosidosis 1 (GM2G1):
An autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease marked by the accumulation of GM2 gangliosides in the neuronal cells. It is characterized by GM2 gangliosides accumulation in the absence of HEXA activity, leading to neurodegeneration and, in the infantile form, death in early childhood. It exists in several forms: infantile (most common and most severe), juvenile and adult (late-onset).
PTM
N-linked glycan at Asn-115 consists of Man3-GlcNAc2 (PubMed:1533633, PubMed:16698036, PubMed:19159218) (Probable). N-linked glycan at Asn-157 consists of either GlcNAc or GlcNAc2-Man7-9. N-linked glycan at Asn-295 consists of either GlcNAc, GlcNAc-Fuc, or GlcNAc2-Man4 (Probable).
