Background: Beta-hexosaminidase subunit beta (HEXB) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the HEXB gene. It is mapped to 5q13.3. HEXB is the beta subunit of the lysosomal enzyme beta-hexosaminidase that, together with the cofactor GM2 activator protein, catalyzes the degradation of the ganglioside GM2, and other molecules containing terminal N-acetyl hexosamines. Beta subunit gene mutations lead to Sandhoff disease (GM2-gangliosidosis type II). It has been found that HEXB is a peptidoglycan hydrolase and it is involved in restricting mycobacteria growth even before the onset of adaptive immunity.

Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 20 family.

Molecular Weight: 63 kDa
