- Description
- Predicted to have NAD+ kinase activity. Involved in animal organ development; cellular response to ceramide; and sphingosine metabolic process. Used to study non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. Is expressed in several structures, including blastodisc; heart; liver; pleuroperitoneal region; and yolk syncytial layer. Orthologous to human SPHK2 (sphingosine kinase 2).
