Product Description
Sphingsoine 1-phosphate lyase (SPL) (E.C.4.1.2.27) works as a key regulator of the final step of the sphingolipid degradative pathway by irreversibly breaking down the sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) to ethanolamine phosphate and hexadecenal. S1P signaling through its five receptors involves in many biological events such as proliferation, inflammation and apoptosis in cancer and other degenerative diseases.
A support protocol for detection of S1P lyase activity is available below.
