Sphingosine N-acyltransferase LAG1 (P38703)

Identification
NameSphingosine N-acyltransferase LAG1
Synonyms
  • Longevity assurance factor 1
  • Longevity assurance gene 1 protein
  • Longevity assurance protein 1
Gene NameLAG1
Enzyme Class
Biological Properties
General FunctionInvolved in protein binding
Specific FunctionComponent of the ceramide synthase complex required for C26-CoA-dependent ceramide synthesis. Redundant with LAC1. Facilitates ER-to-Golgi transport of GPI-anchored proteins. Involved in the aging process. Deletion of LAG1 results in a pronounced increase (approximately 50%) in mean and in maximum life span
Cellular LocationEndoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
