Target/Specificity | This LASS6 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 335-361 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human LASS6. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | LASS6 Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | CERS6 (HGNC:23826) |

Function | Ceramide synthase that catalyzes the transfer of the acyl chain from acyl-CoA to a sphingoid base, with high selectivity toward palmitoyl-CoA (hexadecanoyl-CoA; C16:0-CoA) (PubMed:17609214, PubMed:17977534, PubMed:23530041, PubMed:26887952, PubMed:31916624). Can use other acyl donors, but with less efficiency (By similarity). N- acylates sphinganine and sphingosine bases to form dihydroceramides and ceramides in de novo synthesis and salvage pathways, respectively (PubMed:17977534, PubMed:23530041, PubMed:26887952, PubMed:31916624). Ceramides generated by CERS6 play a role in inflammatory response (By similarity). Acts as a regulator of metabolism and hepatic lipid accumulation (By similarity). Under high fat diet, palmitoyl- (C16:0-) ceramides generated by CERS6 specifically bind the mitochondrial fission factor MFF, thereby promoting mitochondrial fragmentation and contributing to the development of obesity (By similarity). |

Background
LASS6 may be involved in sphingolipid synthesis or its regulation (By similarity).
