asah-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid metabolic process and sphingolipid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in extracellular region and lysosome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Farber lipogranulomatosis; sphingolipidosis; and spinal muscular atrophy with progressive myoclonic epilepsy. Is an ortholog of human ASAH1 (N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase 1).
