MGP006252

Record overview

MGPD IDMGP006252
Gene ID91012
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameceramide synthase 5
Gene Symbol CERS5
SynonymsTrh4; LASS5;
Alternate namesceramide synthase 5; LAG1 homolog, ceramide synthase 5; LAG1 longevity assurance homolog 5;
Chromosome12
Map Location12q13.12
EC Number2.3.1.24
SummaryThis gene encodes a protein that belongs to the TLC (TRAM, LAG1 and CLN8 homology domains) family of proteins. The encoded protein functions in the synthesis of ceramide, a lipid molecule that is involved in a several cellular signaling pathways. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
