Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionasm-1 encodes a protein similar to human acid sphingomyelinase (ASM) or sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase; the ASM-1 protein has a putative secretory signal peptide at the N-terminus, saposin-like and proline-rich domains and putative N-linked glycosylation sites; asm-1 shows phosphodiesterase activity when expressed in COS-7 cells; while mammalian ASM is detected as both intracellular and secreted forms, asm-1 was detected exclusively in the secreted form; northern blot analysis indicates that asm-1 is expressed at higher levels in the embryo compared with other stages.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00003086

Automated_descriptionEnables sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase activity. Involved in ceramide biosynthetic process and sphingomyelin catabolic process. Located in extracellular region and lysosome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Niemann-Pick disease type A and Niemann-Pick disease type B. Is an ortholog of human SMPD1 (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Pseudo_map_position
Reference (14)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
