Target Name
DEGS1
Target Full Name
Sphingolipid delta(4)-desaturase DES1
Target Function
Has sphingolipid-delta-4-desaturase activity. Converts D-erythro-sphinganine to D-erythro-sphingosine (E-sphing-4-enine). Catalyzes the equilibrium isomerization of retinols.
Target Subcellular Location
Mitochondrion membrane. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Target Protein Families
Fatty acid desaturase type 1 family, DEGS subfamily
Target Tissue Specificity
Ubiquitous.
Target Synonyms
DEGS1; DES1; MLD; MIG15; Sphingolipid delta(4-desaturase DES1; Cell migration-inducing gene 15 protein; Degenerative spermatocyte homolog 1; Dihydroceramide desaturase-1; Membrane lipid desaturase
Target Background
This gene encodes a member of the membrane fatty acid desaturase family which is responsible for inserting double bonds into specific positions in fatty acids. This protein contains three His-containing consensus motifs that are characteristic of a group of membrane fatty acid desaturases. It is predicted to be a multiple membrane-spanning protein localized to the endoplasmic reticulum. Overexpression of this gene inhibited biosynthesis of the EGF receptor, suggesting a possible role of a fatty acid desaturase in regulating biosynthetic processing of the EGF receptor.
