General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function a Lag1 deletion mutant does not have a reduction in total sphingolipid levels. Additional deletion of C4 hydroxylase Sur2 causes a reduction in levels of all phytosphingolipids Saccharomyces cerevisiae
physiological function a Lag1 deletion mutant does not have a reduction in total sphingolipid levels. Additional deletion of C4 hydroxylase Sur2 causes a reduction in levels of all phytosphingolipids, and de novo synthesis of sphingolipids is disrupted in Lac1/Sur2 deletion strains. Loss of Lac1 but not Lag1 affects strain resistance to increased temperature Saccharomyces cerevisiae
