Summary
Predicted to enable serine C-palmitoyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in ceramide biosynthetic process and sphingosine biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within sphingoid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum and membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be part of serine C-palmitoyltransferase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SPTLC3 (serine palmitoyltransferase long chain base subunit 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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.
