Analysis of phosphorylated sphingolipid long-chain bases reveals potential roles in heat stress and growth control in Saccharomyces.

Abstract excerpt

Sphingolipid long-chain bases and their phosphorylated derivatives, for example, sphingosine-1-phosphate in mammals, have been implicated as signaling molecules. The possibility that Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells also use long-chain-base phosphates to regulate cellular processes has only recently begun to be examined. Here we present a simple and sensitive procedure for analyzing and quantifying long-chain-base...
