Molecular basis for the catalytic mechanism of human neutral sphingomyelinases 1 (hSMPD2)
Abstract Enzymatic breakdown of sphingomyelin by sphingomyelinase (SMase) is the main source of the membrane lipids, ceramides, which are involved in many cellular physiological processes. However, the full-length structure of human neutral SMase has not been resolved; therefore, its catalytic mecha...
