UniProt data
UniProt name: SPTC3_HUMAN (Q9NUV7)
Gene name: SPTLC3; Synonyms=C20orf38, SPTLC2L
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: Serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT). The heterodimer formed with LCB1/SPTLC1 constitutes the catalytic core. The composition of the serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) complex determines the substrate preference. The SPTLC1-SPTLC3-SPTSSA isozyme uses both C14-CoA and C16-CoA as substrates, while the SPTLC1-SPTLC3-SPTSSB has the ability to use a broader range of acyl-CoAs without apparent preference. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19416851}.
Subcellular location: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
Transmembrane domains:
- 59-79, 21 AA, Helical. {ECO:0000255}.
Sequence: 552 AA
