Background
catalytic activity:ATP + sphinganine = ADP + sphinganine 1-phosphate.,catalytic activity:ATP + sphingosine = ADP + sphingosine 1-phosphate.,cofactor:Magnesium.,function:Catalyzes the phosphorylation of sphingosine to form sphingosine 1-phosphate (SPP), a lipid mediator with both intra-and extracellular functions. Also acts on D-erythro-sphingosine and to a lesser extent sphinganine, but not other lipids, such as D,L-threo-dihydrosphingosine, N,N-dimethylsphingosine, diacylglycerol, ceramide, or phosphatidylinositol.,similarity:Contains 1 DAGKc domain.,subunit:Interacts with ACY1 (By similarity). Binds to calmodulin. Interacts with SPHKAP.,tissue specificity:Widely expressed with highest levels in adult liver, kidney, heart and skeletal muscle.,
