Summary
Predicted to enable sphinganine-1-phosphate aldolase activity. Involved in defense response to Gram-positive bacterium. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephrotic syndrome type 14. Orthologous to human SGPL1 (sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
