Sptssa

Predicted to contribute to serine C-palmitoyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in ceramide biosynthetic process; protein localization; and sphingosine biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be part of serine palmitoyltransferase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including aorta; brain; retina; spleen; and submandibular gland. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hereditary spastic paraplegia 90A and hereditary spastic paraplegia 90B. Orthologous to human SPTSSA (serine palmitoyltransferase small subunit A).

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Sptssa often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
