Abstract excerpt

Aspartoacylase (ASPA) is an abundant enzyme in the brain, which catalyzes the conversion of N-acetylaspartate into acetate and aspartate, deficiency in its activity leads to degeneration of the white matter of the brain and is a recognized cause of Canavan disease (CD), which affect children.
