Subcellular_location: Lysosome . Lipid droplet . Secreted . The secreted form is induced in a time- and dose-dependent by IL1B and TNF as well as stress and viral infection. This increase of the secreted form seems to be due to exocytosis of the lysosomal form and is Ca(2+)-dependent (PubMed:20807762, PubMed:22573858, PubMed:20530211). Secretion is dependent of phosphorylation at Ser-510 (PubMed:17303575). Secretion is induced by inflammatory mediators such as IL1B, IFNG or TNF as well as infection with bacteria and viruses (PubMed:12563314, PubMed:20807762). .
Background: The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal acid sphingomyelinase that converts sphingomyelin to ceramide. The encoded protein also has phospholipase C activity. Defects in this gene are a cause of Niemann-Pick disease type A (NPA) and Niemann-Pick disease type B (NPB). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
