2.3.1.297 heterotrimer subunits Lac1p, Lag1p, and Lip1p Saccharomyces cerevisiae
2.3.1.297 More Lag1p, Lac1p and Lip1p comprise the ceramide synthase. Lag1p/Lac1p interacting protein, 28 kDa, Lip1p is an essential component of the ceramide synthase, which forms a heteromeric complex with Lac1p and Lag1p. Lip1p is required for ceramide synthesis in vivo and in vitro. It is possible that Lip1p is modified by O-linked glycosylation. Its short, highly charged N-terminus is cytoplasmic and dispensible for ceramide synthase activity Saccharomyces cerevisiae
