Application
D-erythro-Dihydrosphingosine has been used:
- as a standard lipid in quantification assay
- in kinetics assay
- to determine serine palmitoyl transferase activity
Biochem/physiol Actions
D-erythro-Dihydrosphingosine is a natural stereoisomer. The levels of dihydrosphingosine (DHS) is increased during unfolded protein response (UPR).
