NSMase2 also known as neutral sphingomyelinase 2 is an enzyme with a molecular mass of approximately 97 kDa. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin into ceramide and phosphorylcholine. NSMase2 is expressed in various tissues like brain liver and kidney. The enzyme is membrane-associated where it plays a role in the regulation of sphingolipid metabolism.
Biological function summary

NSMase2 influences many cellular processes by controlling levels of bioactive lipids. It is an important participant in the ceramide production pathway impacting cell signaling and apoptosis. While not usually part of large complexes its activity modulates lipid raft composition influencing membrane-associated signaling pathways.

Pathways

NSMase2 contributes significantly to the sphingolipid metabolic pathway by generating ceramide which acts as a second messenger in various cellular responses. Notably it interfaces with the MAPK pathway affecting signal transduction related to stress and inflammation. It has functional relations with proteins like PKC which is involved in cell survival and apoptosis processes.

NSMase2 has been linked to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease and the inflammatory disorder atherosclerosis. Dysregulation in NSMase2 activity can result in altered ceramide levels contributing to these conditions. Additionally its interaction with TNFα a pro-inflammatory cytokine exemplifies its involvement in inflammatory responses and related diseases.

Target data

Catalyzes the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to form ceramide and phosphocholine. Ceramide mediates numerous cellular functions, such as apoptosis and growth arrest, and is capable of regulating these 2 cellular events independently. Also hydrolyzes sphingosylphosphocholine. Regulates the cell cycle by acting as a growth suppressor in confluent cells. Probably acts as a regulator of postnatal development and participates in bone and dentin mineralization (PubMed : 10823942, PubMed : 14741383, PubMed : 15051724). Binds to anionic phospholipids (APLs) such as phosphatidylserine (PS) and phosphatidic acid (PA) that modulate enzymatic activity and subcellular location. May be involved in IL-1-beta-induced JNK activation in hepatocytes (By similarity). May act as a mediator in transcriptional regulation of NOS2/iNOS via the NF-kappa-B activation under inflammatory conditions (By similarity).
