Rabbit anti-Human, Mouse Sphingomyelin Synthase 1 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-SGMS1 antibody
Sphingomyelin Synthase 1
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is predicted to be a five-pass transmembrane protein. This gene may be predominately expressed in brain. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
Function: Sphingomyelin synthases synthesize the sphingolipid, sphingomyelin, through transfer of the phosphatidyl head group, phosphatidylcholine, on to the primary hydroxyl of ceramide. The reaction is bidirectional depending on the respective levels of the sphingolipid and ceramide. Golgi apparatus SMS1 directly and specifically recognizes the choline head group on the substrate, requiring two fatty chains on the choline-P donor molecule in order to be recognized efficiently as a substrate. Major form in macrophages. Required for cell growth in certain cell types such as HeLa cells. Suppresses BAX-mediated apoptosis and also prevents cell death in response to stimuli such as hydrogen peroxide, osmotic stress, elevated temperature and exogenously supplied sphingolipids. May protect against cell death by reversing the stress-inducible increase in levels of proapoptotic ceramide. Ref.10 Ref.12
Catalytic activity: A ceramide + a phosphatidylcholine = a sphingomyelin + a 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol.
Enzyme regulation: Inhibited by bacterial PC-phospholipase C inhibitor D609. Ref.10
Subcellular location: Golgi apparatus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Ref.10 Ref.12 Ref.13.
Tissue specificity: Brain, heart, kidney, liver, muscle and stomach. Ref.7 Ref.9 Ref.10
Miscellaneous: Overexpression of the human protein in mouse causes increased non-HDL-sphingomyelin and non-HDL cholesterol levels, decreased HDL-sphingomyelin and HDL-cholesterol levels and increases lipoprotein atherogenic potential.
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the sphingomyelin synthase family.Contains 1 SAM (sterile alpha motif) domain.

Product Notes
The SGMS1 sgms1 (Catalog #AAA395672) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Sphingomyelin Synthase 1 reacts with Human, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Sphingomyelin Synthase 1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SGMS1 sgms1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Sphingomyelin Synthase 1, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
