| Application: | Sphingolipid Ceramide N-Deacylase from Pseudomonas sp. has been used in enzymatic conversion and derivatization of sulfatides. It has also been used to hydrolyze the fatty acid chain of mactosyl ceramide. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Hydrolyzes the N-acyl linkage between fatty acids and sphingosines in ceramides of various sphingolipids. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Sphingolipid Ceramide N-Deacylase from Pseudomonas sp., under certain conditions, can recyclate lyso-sphingolipids. It condenses fatty acids to sphingosine to generate ceramide. The enzyme mainly acts on neutral and acidic glycosphingolipids. |
| General description: | Sphingolipid Ceramide N-Deacylase from Pseudomonas sp. is a hydrolytic enzyme. |
| Other Notes: | One unit will hydrolyze 1 μmol of asialo GM1 per minute at pH 6.0 at 37 °C. |
| Physical form: | Solution in 50 mM sodium acetate, pH 6.0, with 0.1% Lubrol PX. |
