Catalog No. ABIN306944

Product Details anti-SMPD1 Antibody

Target: SMPD1 (Sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1, Acid Lysosomal (SMPD1))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This SMPD1 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA

Cross-Reactivity: Human

Characteristics: Acid Sphingomyelinase, aSMase, SMPD1, ASM, Sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase, ASM-1,Human acid sphingomyelinase (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase, ASM) is the lysosomal enzyme responsible for the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to ceramide and phosphocholine. Converts sphingomyelin to ceramide. aSM also has phospholipase C activities toward 1,2-diacylglycerol-phosphocholine and 1,2-diacylglycerol-phosphoglycerol. The enzyme is a membrane-associated glycoprotein with a pH optimum of about 4.5 and a subunit molecular mass of about 72 kDa. In addition AtoS M, two other sphingomyelinases have been identified in man, a Mg2+- dependent neutral sphingomyelinase found primarily in brain and a Zn2+-dependent acid sphingomyelinase found primarily in serum. Although it is likely that the acid and neutral sphingomyelinases are coded by different genes, the molecular genetic relationship of these three biochemically distinct sphingomyelinases has not been determined. Understanding the role of these sphingomyelinases in the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to ceramide will be an important step in the understanding of ceramide as it is further hydrolyzed to sphingosine, a neutral phospholipid which has been implicated in the regulation of protein kinase C-mediated signal transduction. Inherited deficiencies of ASM have been reported in man, deficient ASM activity results in the two major subtypes of Niemann-Pick disease (NPD).
