Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Converts sphingomyelin to ceramide. Hydrolyze 1-acyl-2- lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (lyso-PC) and 1-O-alkyl-2-lyso- sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (lyso-platelet-activating factor). The physiological substrate seems to be Lyso-PAF (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Although widely expressed in all tissues examined, except the spleen, high enzymatic activity occurs only in the brain. {ECO:0000269PubMed:9520418}.
