Target Name
CERS3
Target Full Name
Ceramide synthase 3
Target Function
Ceramide synthase that catalyzes the transfer of the acyl chain from acyl-CoA to a sphingoid base, with high selectivity toward very- and ultra-long-chain fatty acyl-CoA (chain length greater than C22). N-acylates sphinganine and sphingosine bases to form dihydroceramides and ceramides in de novo synthesis and salvage pathways, respectively. It is crucial for the synthesis of ultra-long-chain ceramides in the epidermis, to maintain epidermal lipid homeostasis and terminal differentiation.
Target Involvement
Ichthyosis, congenital, autosomal recessive 9 (ARCI9)
Target Subcellular Location
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Target Tissue Specificity
Expressed in the epidermis, where it localizes at the interface between the stratum granulosum and the stratum corneum (at protein level).
