| Description | Journal: Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta (bba) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids Within the last 3 decades, there has been intense study of bioactive sphingolipids and the enzymes which metabolize those lipids. One enzyme is the critical lipid kinase sphingosine kinase 1 (SK1), which produces the potent and pleiotropic signaling lipid, sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P). SK1 and S1P have been implicated in a host of different diseases including cancer, chronic inflammation, and metabolic diseases. However, while there is ample knowledge about the importance of these molecules in the development and progression of disease there is a dearth of knowledge of the molecular mechanisms which regulate SK1 function. In this review, we will cover some of the more recent and exciting findings about the different ways SK1 function can be regulated, from transcriptional regulation to protein stability. Finally, we will delve into recent structural insights into SK1 and how they might relate to function at cell membranes. |
