Prosaposin also known as PSAP is a highly conserved glycoprotein which is a precursor for 4 cleavage products: saposins A, B, C, and D.
Saposin is an acronym for Sphingolipid Activator PrO[S]teINs.
Each domain of the precursor protein is approximately 80aa residues long with nearly identical placement of cysteine residues and glycosylation sites.
Saposins A-D localize primarily to the lysosomal compartment where they facilitate the catabolism of glycosphingolipids with short oligosaccharide groups.
The precursor protein exists both as a secretory protein and as an integral membrane protein and has neurotrophic activities.
Saposins A-D are required for the hydrolysis of certain shingolipids by specific lysosomal hydrolases.
