About SAMD8

Cytogenetic location: 10q22.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:75,099,593-75,182,123 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 211 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 15.2), testis (RPKM 8.3) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable ceramide cholinephosphotransferase activity and sphingomyelin synthase activity. Involved in ceramide biosynthetic process and regulation of ceramide biosynthetic process. Located in cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum. Is integral component of endoplasmic reticulum membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
