2-hydroxylated sphingomyelin profiles in cells from patients with mutated fatty acid 2-hydroxylase
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Fatty acid 2-hydroxylase (FA2H) is the enzyme responsible for the hydroxylation of free fatty acids prior to their incorporation into 2-hydroxylated sphingolipids, which are the major constituents of the myelin leaflet. Mutated FA2H has been associated with neuro...
