background:
N-SMase2 (neutral sphingomyelinase 2), also known as NSMASE2 or SMPD3 (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 3), is a ubiquitously expressed 655 amino acid member of the magnesium-dependent phosphohydrolase protein family. Localized to the membrane of the Golgi apparatus, N-SMase2 functions to catalyze the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to form ceramide and phosphocholine—two proteins that mediate cell growth arrest and apoptosis. N-SMase2 is enzymatically activated by unsaturated fatty acids and phosphatidylserine and, through regulation of ceramide synthesis, is involved in growth suppression and postnatal development. Expression of N-SMase2 is upregulated during the G0/G1 phases of the cell cycle and optimal N-SMase2 activity occurs at a slightly basic pH of 7.5. N-SMase2 deficiency is the cause of chondrodysplasia, a genetic disorder characterized by impaired bone growth that leads to short stature, bowlegs and underdeveloped joints.

Function:
Catalyzes the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to form ceramide and phosphocholine. Ceramide mediates numerous cellular functions, such as apoptosis and growth arrest, and is capable of regulating these 2 cellular events independently. Also hydrolyzes sphingosylphosphocholine. Regulates the cell cycle by acting as a growth suppressor in confluent cells. Probably acts as a regulator of postnatal development and participates in bone and dentin mineralization.

Subunit:
Belongs to the neutral sphingomyelinase family.

Subcellular Location:
Golgi apparatus membrane. Cell membrane. May localize to detergent-resistant subdomains of Golgi membranes of hypothalamic neurosecretory neurons. According to PubMed:15051724, it localizes to plasma membrane in confluent contact-inhibited cells.

Tissue Specificity:
Predominantly expressed in brain.

Similarity:
Belongs to the neutral sphingomyelinase family.
