additional information a mutant based on the backbone of CerS5 (which generates C16-ceramide), containing an 11-residue sequence of a loop located between the last two putative transmembrane domainsfrom CerS2 (which generates C22-C24-ceramides), is altered such that it generates C22-C24 and other ceramides. The mutant generates C22:0-ceramide and C16:0-ceramide to a similar extent but also generates C18:0-, C20:0-, and C24:1-ceramides Homo sapiens
