| + | Ceramide synthases (CerS) catalyze ceramide formation via N-acylation of a sphingoid base with a fatty acyl-CoA and are attractive drug targets for treating numerous metabolic diseases and cancers. Here, we present the cryo-EM structure of a yeast CerS complex, consisting of a catalytic Lac1 subunit and a regulatory Lip1 subunit, in complex with C26-CoA substrate. The CerS holoenzyme exists as a dimer of Lac1-Lip1 heterodimers. Lac1 contains a hydrophilic reaction chamber and a hydrophobic tunnel for binding the CoA moiety and C26-acyl chain of C26-CoA, respectively. Lip1 interacts with both the transmembrane region and the last luminal loop of Lac1 to maintain the proper acyl chain binding tunnel. A lateral opening on Lac1 serves as a potential entrance for the sphingoid base substrate. Our findings provide a template for understanding the working mechanism of eukaryotic ceramide synthases and may facilitate the development of therapeutic CerS modulators. | ||
