CYP4F2-mediated ω-hydroxylation of 1-deoxysphingolipids reveals a new hepatic detoxification pathway
2026-05-14
Abstract excerpt
1-deoxysphingolipids (1-deoxySLs) are atypical, cytotoxic sphingolipids (SL) formed by the serine palmitoyltransferase through the alternative use of L-Alanine over its canonical substrate L-Serine. Elevated plasma levels of 1-deoxySLs have been implicated in metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases. Due to the missing C1 hydroxyl group, 1-deoxySLs cannot be converted into complex sphingolipids nor degraded via th...
