NamePhytosphingosine 1-phosphate
SpeciesSaccharomyces cerevisiae
StrainBaker's yeast
DescriptionPhytosphingosine 1-phosphate is an intermediate in sphingolipid metabolism pathway. Sphingolipids are essential components of the plasma membrane in all eukaryotic cells. S. cerevisiae cells make three complex sphingolipids: inositol-phosphoceramide (IPC), mannose-inositol-phosphoceramide (MIPC), and mannosyl-diinositol-phosphorylceramide (M(IP)2C). Sphingolipid long chain bases (LCBs) - dihydrosphingosine (DHS) and phytosphingosine (PHS) - are implicated as secondary messengers in vital signaling pathways. [Biocyc SPHINGOLIPID-SYN-PWY]

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in diacylglycerol kinase activity
Specific function:
Catalyzes the phosphorylation of the sphingoid long chain bases dihydrosphingosine (DHS or sphinganine) and phytosphingosine (PHS) to form dihydrosphingosine 1-phosphate (DHS-1P) and phytosphingosine 1-phosphate (PHS-1P) respectively. Involved in the biosynthesis of sphingolipids and ceramides. Required with LCB3 for an effective incorporation of DHS into ceramides through a phosphorylation-dephosphorylation cycle. Involved in heat-induced transient cell cycle arrest. Accumulation of phosphorylated sphingoid long chain bases (LCBPs) stimulates calcium influx and activates calcineurin signaling.
