Summary

SPTLC1 (serine palmitoyltransferase long chain base subunit 1, HGNC:11277) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 9q22.31, encoding Serine palmitoyltransferase 1 (O15269). Component of the serine palmitoyltransferase multisubunit enzyme (SPT) that catalyzes the initial and rate-limiting step in sphingolipid biosynthesis by condensing L-serine and activated acyl-CoA (most commonly palmitoyl-CoA) to form long-chain bases. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 80.8% of cell lines).

This gene encodes a member of the class-II pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. The encoded protein is the long chain base subunit 1 of serine palmitoyltransferase. Serine palmitoyltransferase converts L-serine and palmitoyl-CoA to 3-oxosphinganine with pyridoxal 5’-phosphate and is the key enzyme in sphingolipid biosynthesis. Mutations in this gene were identified in patients with hereditary sensory neuropathy type 1. Alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. Pseudogenes of this gene have been defined on chromosomes 1, 6, 10, and 13.

Function. Component of the serine palmitoyltransferase multisubunit enzyme (SPT) that catalyzes the initial and rate-limiting step in sphingolipid biosynthesis by condensing L-serine and activated acyl-CoA (most commonly palmitoyl-CoA) to form long-chain bases. The SPT complex is also composed of SPTLC2 or SPTLC3 and SPTSSA or SPTSSB. Within this complex, the heterodimer with SPTLC2 or SPTLC3 forms the catalytic core. The composition of the serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) complex determines the substrate preference. The SPTLC1-SPTLC2-SPTSSA complex shows a strong preference for C16-CoA substrate, while the SPTLC1-SPTLC3-SPTSSA isozyme uses both C14-CoA and C16-CoA as substrates, with a slight preference for C14-CoA. The SPTLC1-SPTLC2-SPTSSB complex shows a strong preference for C18-CoA substrate, while the SPTLC1-SPTLC3-SPTSSB isozyme displays an ability to use a broader range of acyl-CoAs, without apparent preference. Required for adipocyte cell viability and metabolic homeostasis.

Subunit / interactions. Component of the serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) complex, which is also composed of SPTLC2 or SPTLC3 and SPTSSA or SPTSSB. The heterodimer consisting of SPTLC1 and SPTLC2/SPTLC3 forms the catalytic core of the enzyme, while SPTSSA or SPTSSB subunits determine substrate specificity. SPT also interacts with ORMDL proteins, especially ORMDL3, which negatively regulate SPT activity in the presence of ceramides. Forms dimers of heterodimers with SPTLC2. Interacts with RTN4 (isoform B).

Subcellular location. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane.

Tissue specificity. Widely expressed. Not detected in small intestine.

Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylation at Tyr-164 inhibits activity and promotes cell survival.

Disease relevance. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 27, juvenile (ALS27) [MIM:620285] A form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a neurodegenerative disorder affecting upper motor neurons in the brain and lower motor neurons in the brain stem and spinal cord, resulting in fatal paralysis. Sensory abnormalities are absent. The pathologic hallmarks of the disease include pallor of the corticospinal tract due to loss of motor neurons, presence of ubiquitin-positive inclusions within surviving motor neurons, and deposition of pathologic aggregates. The etiology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is likely to be multifactorial, involving both genetic and environmental factors. The disease is inherited in 5-10% of the cases. ALS27 is an autosomal dominant form manifesting as toe walking and gait abnormalities in early childhood. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Variants associated with ALS27 tend to disrupt the normal homeostatic regulation of serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) by ORMDL proteins, resulting in up-regulated SPT activity and elevated levels of canonical SPT products. Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, 1A (HSAN1A) [MIM:162400] A form of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by degeneration of dorsal root and autonomic ganglion cells, and by prominent sensory abnormalities with a variable degree of motor and autonomic dysfunction. The neurological phenotype is often complicated by severe infections, osteomyelitis, and amputations. HSAN1A is an autosomal dominant axonal form with onset in the second or third decades. Initial symptoms are loss of pain, touch, heat, and cold sensation over the feet, followed by distal muscle wasting and weakness. Loss of pain sensation leads to chronic skin ulcers and distal amputations. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Variants associated with HSAN1A tend to increase serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) usage of alanine or glycine rather than serine, resulting in deoxysphingolipid synthesis. Deoxysphingolipids cannot be efficiently degraded by the cell machinery and cause cell toxicity.

Activity regulation. SPT complex catalytic activity is negatively regulated by ORMDL proteins, including ORMDL3, in the presence of ceramides. This mechanism allows to maintain ceramide levels at sufficient concentrations for the production of complex sphingolipids, but which prevents the accumulation of ceramides to levels that trigger apoptosis.

Domain organisation. The transmembrane domain is involved in the interaction with ORMDL3.

Induction. Expression at protein level is highly increased in brains of patients with Alzheimer disease. No changes are observed at mRNA level.

Pathway. Lipid metabolism; sphingolipid metabolism.

Similarity. Belongs to the class-II pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.

Enriched among interaction partners

Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 160 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
