Function | Ceramide synthase that catalyzes the transfer of the acyl chain from acyl-CoA to a sphingoid base, with high selectivity toward palmitoyl-CoA (hexadecanoyl-CoA; C16:0-CoA)(PubMed:16951403, PubMed:18541923, PubMed:22144673, PubMed:22661289, PubMed:23530041, PubMed:26887952, PubMed:29632068, PubMed:31916624). Can use other acyl donors, but with less efficiency (By similarity). N-acylates sphinganine and sphingosine bases to form dihydroceramides and ceramides in de novo synthesis and salvage pathways, respectively (PubMed:31916624). Plays a role in de novo ceramide synthesis and surfactant homeostasis in pulmonary epithelia (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9D6K9}; Multi-pass membrane protein |

Background
Lass5 also known as longevity assurance homolog 5 is a dihydroceramide synthase. It uses palrnitoyl-CoA as acyl donor and is involved in the synthesis of C14, C16 and C18-ceramide.
