background:
The LASS (longevity-assurance homologue) family members, which are highly conserved among eukaryotes, function in ceramide synthesis. LASS6 (LAG1 homolog, ceramide synthase 6) may be involved in sphingolipid synthesis or its regulation.
Function:
May be involved in sphingolipid synthesis or its regulation
Subcellular Location:
Nucleus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein (Potential). Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
Post-translational modifications:
Glycosylation on Asn-18 is not necessary for function
Similarity:
Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain.
Contains 1 TLC (TRAM/LAG1/CLN8) domain.
