Smpd2 - sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 2 Gene

Also Known as nSMase

Species: Rattus norvegicus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 83537

Summary

Enables sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase activity. Involved in ceramide biosynthetic process; intracellular signal transduction; and response to mechanical stimulus. Located in caveola. Orthologous to human SMPD2 (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
