Summary
Predicted to enable ceramide cholinephosphotransferase activity; ceramide phosphoethanolamine synthase activity; and sphingomyelin synthase activity. Predicted to be involved in ceramide biosynthetic process and regulation of ceramide biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within ceramide phosphoethanolamine biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human SAMD8 (sterile alpha motif domain containing 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
