Sgms1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable ceramide cholinephosphotransferase activity; ceramide phosphoethanolamine synthase activity; and sphingomyelin synthase activity. Involved in cellular response to lipopolysaccharide; cellular response to tumor necrosis factor; and positive regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be located in Golgi trans cisterna. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; and plasma membrane. Used to study pulmonary edema. Biomarker of pulmonary edema. Orthologous to human SGMS1 (sphingomyelin synthase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
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 rat Sgms1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
