摘要: In mammalian cells, cermide-1-phosphate (C1P) is produced via the ATP-dependent mechanism of converting ceramide to C1P by enzyme, kinase (CERK). CERK was first described as a calcium-stimulated lipid that co-purified with brain synaptic vesicles, and date, only identified enzyme known produce in cells. has steadily emerged bioactive sphingolipid involved cell proliferation, macrophage migration, inflammatory events. The recent generation knockout mouse development inhibitors have furthered our current understanding CERK-derived regulating biological processes. this chapter, history well functions attributed are reviewed.
