Summary
Predicted to enable N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase activity; nuclear receptor binding activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in lung development and response to organic substance. Predicted to be located in extracellular space; lysosome; and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Farber lipogranulomatosis; sphingolipidosis; and spinal muscular atrophy with progressive myoclonic epilepsy. Orthologous to human ASAH1 (N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
