GeneID: 56624 Human ASAH2

Swiss-port # Q9NR71 Human Neutral ceramidase

Gene Symbol ASAH2
Gene Full Name N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase (non-lysosomal ceramidase) 2
Background Ceramidases (EC 3.5.1.23), such as ASAH2, catalyze hydrolysis of the N-acyl linkage of ceramide, a second messenger in a variety of cellular events, to produce sphingosine. Sphingosine exerts both mitogenic and apoptosis-inducing activities, and its phosphorylated form functions as an intra- and intercellular second messenger (see MIM 603730) (Mitsutake et al., 2001 [PubMed 11328816]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
Function Hydrolyzes the sphingolipid ceramide into sphingosine and free fatty acid at an optimal pH of 6.5-8.5. Acts as a key regulator of sphingolipid signaling metabolites by generating sphingosine at the cell surface. Acts as a repressor of apoptosis both by reducing C16-ceramide, thereby preventing ceramide-induced apoptosis, and generating sphingosine, a precursor of the antiapoptotic factor sphingosine 1-phosphate. Probably involved in the digestion of dietary sphingolipids in intestine by acting as a key enzyme for the catabolism of dietary sphingolipids and regulating the levels of bioactive sphingolipid metabolites in the intestinal tract. [UniProt]
PTM N-glycosylated. Required for enzyme activity (By similarity).
O-glycosylated. Required to retain it as a type II membrane protein at the cell surface.
Phosphorylated. May prevent ubiquitination and subsequent degradation (By similarity).
Ubiquitinated, leading to its degradation by the proteasome. Ubiquitination is triggered by nitric oxid (By similarity).
