Rabbit anti Drosophila Sphingomyelin synthase-related protein 1

Rabbit anti Drosophila Sphingomyelin synthase-related protein 1

• Background: Sphingomyelin synthases are enzymes that mediate the biosynthesis of sphingolipid headgroups. Sphingomyelin synthase 1 and 2 (SMS1 and SMS2) mediate the biosynthesis of sphingomyelin, a central sphingolipid in mammalian cells. In addition to SMS1 and SMS2, a third SMS-related protein, SMSr, is known, however its function remains largely unknown. SMSr also occurs in organisms which lack sphingomyelin, such as the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Its function appears to be biosynthesis of ethanolamine phosphorylceramide (EPC), a sphingolipid structurally related to sphingomyelin. SMSr has also been found in mammals as well.
