sphingosine-1-phosphate phosphatase 2

Symbol

SGPP2 (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid metabolite that regulates diverse biologic processes. SGPP2 catalyzes the degradation of S1P (Ogawa et al., 2003 [PubMed 12411432]).[supplied by OMIM, Jun 2009]
