Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityAcyl-CoA + sphingosine = CoA + N- acylsphingosine.
FunctionComponent of the ceramide synthase complex required for C26-CoA-dependent ceramide synthesis. Redundant with LAG1. Facilitates ER-to-Golgi transport of GPI-anchored proteins. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10198056, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11387200, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11694577, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15692566}.
InductionExpression is controlled by PDR1 and PDR3 which bind its propmoter PDRE element, and by ROX1 and CBF1
