Crystal structure of Sphingosine Kinase 1 with inhibitor

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23602659

Function

[SPHK1_HUMAN] Catalyzes the phosphorylation of sphingosine to form sphingosine 1-phosphate (SPP), a lipid mediator with both intra- and extracellular functions. Also acts on D-erythro-sphingosine and to a lesser extent sphinganine, but not other lipids, such as D,L-threo-dihydrosphingosine, N,N-dimethylsphingosine, diacylglycerol, ceramide, or phosphatidylinositol.[1]
