    Summary
    Predicted to enable sphingolipid delta-4 desaturase activity. Predicted to be involved in ceramide biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 18. Orthologous to human DEGS1 (delta 4-desaturase, sphingolipid 1) and DEGS2 (delta 4-desaturase, sphingolipid 2).
