Target/Specificity | LASS2 is a protein that has sequence similarity to yeast longevity assurance gene 1. Mutation or overexpression of the related gene in yeast has been shown to alter yeast lifespan. The human protein may play a role in the regulation of cell growth.This gene encodes a protein that has sequence similarity to yeast longevity assurance gene 1. Mutation or overexpression of the related gene in yeast has been shown to alter yeast lifespan. The human protein may play a role in the regulation of cell growth. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been described. |

Function | Ceramide synthase that catalyzes the transfer of the acyl chain from acyl-CoA to a sphingoid base, with high selectivity toward very-long-chain fatty acyl-CoA (chain length C22-C27) (PubMed:17977534, PubMed:18165233, PubMed:18541923, PubMed:19728861, PubMed:20937905, PubMed:22144673, PubMed:22661289, PubMed:26887952, PubMed:29632068). N- acylates sphinganine and sphingosine bases to form dihydroceramides and ceramides in de novo synthesis and salvage pathways, respectively (By similarity) (PubMed:17977534, PubMed:18165233, PubMed:18541923, PubMed:19728861, PubMed:20937905, PubMed:22144673, PubMed:22661289, PubMed:26887952, PubMed:29632068). Plays a non-redundant role in the synthesis of ceramides with very-long-chain fatty acids in kidney, liver and brain. Regulates the abundance of myelin-specific sphingolipids galactosylceramide and sulfatide that affects myelin sheath architecture and motor neuron functions (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Expressed in kidney, liver, brain, heart, placenta and lung. |
