Comments
Comment typeDescription
FunctionHydrolyzes phytoceramide and also dihydroceramide into phytosphingosine or dihydrosphingosine. Prefers phytoceramide. Has also reverse hydrolysis activity, catalyzing synthesis of phytoceramide and dihydroceramide from palmitic acid and phytosphingosine or dihydrosphingosine. Is not responsible for the breakdown of unsaturated ceramide.
