Sphingomyelinase from Bacillus cereus, buffered aqueous glycerol solution, >=100 units/mg protein (L

Application

Sphingomyelinase from Bacillus cereus has been used:in the study to analyse the effect of sphingomyelinase on Rubella virus infectivity in cell linesin lipoprotein modification for the generation of cholesterol crystals in vitroto aggregate LDL (low-density lipoprotein)

Sphingomyelinase has been used in a study to assess the interaction of actin with the HIV-1 accessory protein Nef. Sphingomyelinase has also been used in a study to investigate X-ray scattering as a quality-control tool for liposomal drug-delivery systems.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase(SMPD) participates in the metabolic reactions comprisingsphingomyelin. SMPD has the ability to prevent colorectal carcinoma and colitis.

Initiates the formation of sphingomyelin-based second messengers. Activates MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) and SAPKs (stress-activated protein kinases); generates ceramide from sphingomyelin.

General description
