General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
metabolism | SPT is the key regulator enzyme in the ceramide de novo biosynthesis pathway | Rattus norvegicus |
physiological function | the enzyme is required for ceramide synthesis as key regulatory enzyme of this pathway, major mechanism for ceramide generation in NR8383 macrophages is stimulation of their de novo synthesis | Rattus norvegicus |
