Enables

This protein enables 4 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: N-acylsphingosine + H2O = a fatty acid + sphingosine. [EC:3.5.1.23]
metal ion bindingmolecular functionBinding to a metal ion. [GOC:ai]
dihydroceramidase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: a dihydroceramide + H2O = a fatty acid + dihydrosphingosine. [GOC:mah, PMID:10900202]
ceramidase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: H2O + a ceramide = a sphingoid base + a fatty acid. [EC:3.5.1.23, GOC:pz]

Located In

This protein is located in 2 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
Golgi membranecellular componentThe lipid bilayer surrounding any of the compartments of the Golgi apparatus. [GOC:mah]
Golgi apparatuscellular componentA membrane-bound cytoplasmic organelle of the endomembrane system that further processes the core oligosaccharides (e.g. N-glycans) added to proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum and packages them into membrane-bound vesicles. The Golgi apparatus operates at the intersection of the secretory, lysosomal, and endocytic pathways. [ISBN:0198506732]

This protein is active in 1 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
Golgi membranecellular componentThe lipid bilayer surrounding any of the compartments of the Golgi apparatus. [GOC:mah]

Involved In

This protein is involved in 14 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
negative regulation of cell-matrix adhesionbiological processAny process that stops, prevents, or reduces the rate or extent of cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix. [GOC:hjd]
activation of cysteine-type endopeptidase activity involved in apoptotic processbiological processAny process that initiates the activity of the inactive enzyme cysteine-type endopeptidase in the context of an apoptotic process. [GOC:al, GOC:dph, GOC:jl, GOC:mtg_apoptosis, GOC:tb, PMID:14744432, PMID:18328827, Wikipedia:Caspase]
DNA damage responsebiological processAny process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus indicating damage to its DNA from environmental insults or errors during metabolism. [GOC:go_curators]
positive regulation of cell population proliferationbiological processAny process that activates or increases the rate or extent of cell proliferation. [GOC:go_curators]
regulation of autophagybiological processAny process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of autophagy. Autophagy is the process in which cells digest parts of their own cytoplasm. [GOC:dph, GOC:tb]
sphingolipid catabolic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of sphingolipids, any of a class of lipids containing the long-chain amine diol sphingosine or a closely related base (a sphingoid). [GOC:mah, ISBN:0198506732]
DNA damage response, signal transduction by p53 class mediatorbiological processA cascade of processes induced by the cell cycle regulator phosphoprotein p53, or an equivalent protein, in response to the detection of DNA damage. [GOC:go_curators]
response to retinoic acidbiological processAny process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a retinoic acid stimulus. [GOC:sl]
negative regulation of cell adhesion mediated by integrinbiological processAny process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of cell adhesion mediated by integrin. [GOC:add]
regulation of apoptotic processbiological processAny process that modulates the occurrence or rate of cell death by apoptotic process. [GOC:jl, GOC:mtg_apoptosis]
sphingosine biosynthetic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of sphingosine (sphing-4-enine), trans-D-erytho-2-amino-octadec-4-ene-1,3-diol, a long chain amino diol sphingoid base that occurs in most sphingolipids in animal tissues. [GOC:ma, ISBN:0198506732]
ceramide catabolic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of ceramides, any N-acetylated sphingoid. [GOC:ai]
regulation of protein glycosylationbiological processAny process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of protein glycosylation. Protein glycosylation is the addition of a carbohydrate or carbohydrate derivative unit to a protein amino acid, e.g. the addition of glycan chains to proteins. [GOC:dms, GOC:dph, GOC:pr]
cellular response to xenobiotic stimulusbiological processAny process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus from a xenobiotic, a compound foreign to the organism exposed to it. It may be synthesized by another organism (like ampicilin) or it can be a synthetic chemical. [GOC:krc, GOC:mah]
