Target Information
Alternative Names
Acylsphingosine kinase; Ceramide kinase; Cerk; CERK1_HUMAN; dA59H18.2; dA59H18.3; hCERK; KIAA1646; Lipid kinase 4; Lipid kinase LK4; LK4
Protein Function
Catalyzes specifically the phosphorylation of ceramide to form ceramide 1-phosphate. Acts efficiently on natural and analog ceramides (C6, C8, C16 ceramides, and C8-dihydroceramide), to a lesser extent on C2-ceramide and C6-dihydroceramide, but not on other lipids, such as various sphingosines. Shows a greater preference for D-erythro isomer of ceramides. Binds phosphoinositides.
Tissue Specificity
High level expression in heart, brain, skeletal muscle, kidney and liver; moderate in peripheral blood leukocytes and thymus; very low in spleen, small intestine, placenta and lung.
