General description
1-desoxymethylsphingosine is synthesized from glycine in the presence of the enzyme serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT).
Application
1-desoxymethylsphingosine may be used for the complex preparation with bovine serum albumin for cytotoxicity testing in MN9D dopaminergic neuroblastoma cell line.
Biochem/physiol Actions
1-desoxymethylsphingosine is less neurotoxic compared to 1-desoxysphingosine in dorsal root ganglion neuronscultures Mutations in the palmitoyltransferase (SPT) in hereditary sensory neuropathy type 1 (HSAN-1), due to altered substrate specificity 1-desoxymethylsphinganine and 1-deoxy-sphinganine which are further converted to -deoxy(methyl)-ceramide and 1-deoxy(methyl)-sphingosine (1-deoxy(methyl)-SO). However, they lack the hydroxyl group essential for glycosphingolipid generation, resulting in accumulation of intermediate products.
