Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
Serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT; EC 2.3.1.50) catalyzes the first committed and rate-limiting step in sphingolipid biosynthesis. SSSPTB is a small SPT subunit that stimulates SPT activity and confers acyl-CoA preference to the SPT catalytic heterodimer o

Protein name Serine palmitoyltransferase small subunit B (Protein ADMP) (Small subunit of serine palmitoyltransferase B) (ssSPTb)
Protein function Component of the serine palmitoyltransferase multisubunit enzyme (SPT) that catalyzes the initial and rate-limiting step in sphingolipid biosynthesis by condensing L-serine and activated acyl-CoA (most commonly palmitoyl-CoA) to form long-chain
