Description
Predicted to be involved in several processes, including adenylate cyclase-inhibiting G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; prostate gland development; and sphingolipid metabolic process. Predicted to localize to extracellular space and lysosome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in atypical Gaucher's disease due to saposin c deficiency and combined saposin deficiency. Is expressed in blood; extension; peripheral olfactory organ; pleuroperitoneal region; and yolk syncytial layer. Orthologous to several human genes including PSAP (prosaposin).
