About SPTLC3

Cytogenetic location: 20p12.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 20:13,008,972-13,169,103 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 203 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Broad expression in placenta (RPKM 7.5), thyroid (RPKM 7.0) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a subunit of the serine palmitoyltransferase complex which catalyzes the rate-limiting step in sphingolipid biosynthesis. This subunit metabolizes lauroyl- and myristoyl-CoA and generates C14 and C16-sphingoid Bases. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]
