Antibody detects endogenous levels of total Acid sphingomyelinase.
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). Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene.
