About Sptlc1

Summary

Enables serine C-palmitoyltransferase activity. Involved in regulation of fat cell apoptotic process and sphingomyelin biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within ceramide biosynthetic process; sphinganine biosynthetic process; and sphingosine biosynthetic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in brain and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 1A. Orthologous to human SPTLC1 (serine palmitoyltransferase long chain base subunit 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
