Product Description: N-Acetylgalactosamine-6-Sulfatase (GALNS) is a potential general biomarker for multiple malignancies (such as lung cancer, breast cancer, head and neck cancer, etc.). N-Acetylgalactosamine-6-Sulfatase deficiency causes mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA), also known as Morquio A syndrome. N-Acetylgalactosamine-6-Sulfatase can be used in MPS IVA as well as cancer research[1][2].
Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death
