Recombinant Human SPHK1 (N-GST tag) | Z500363

abm | Recombinant Human SPHK1 (N-GST tag) | Z500363

SPHK1 catalyzes the phosphorylation of sphingosine to form sphingosine-1-phosphate (SPP) which is a novel lipid messenger with both intracellular and extracellular functions. Various stimuli increase cellular levels of SPP by activation of SPHK1 . Competitive inhibitors of SPHK1 block formation of SPP and selectively inhibit cellular proliferation induced by a variety of factors. SPHK1/sphingosine-1-phosphate pathway contributes to colon carcinogenesis. SPHK1 plays a key role in the generation and release of proinflammatory mediators triggered by anaphylatoxins from human macrophages and also is involved in the process of immune cell motility .
