Acer2 - alkaline ceramidase 2 Gene

Also Known as Asah3l; CRG-L1; maCER2; 2410116I05Rik

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 230379

Summary

Enables dihydroceramidase activity. Involved in sphingosine biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus. Predicted to be integral component of Golgi membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including blood; heart; liver; lung; and stomach. Orthologous to human ACER2 (alkaline Ceramidase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
