Tbio
ENPP7
Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase family member 7

Protein Summary
Description
Converts sphingomyelin to ceramide and phosphocholine (PubMed:12885774, PubMed:12671034, PubMed:15205117, PubMed:28292932). Has also phospholipase C activity and can cleave phosphocholine from palmitoyl lyso-phosphatidylcholine (PubMed:12885774). Does not have nucleotide pyrophosphatase activity (PubMed:12885774). The protein encoded by this gene is an intestinal alkaline sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase that converts sphingomyelin to ceramide and phosphocholine. The encoded protein is anchored in the cell membrane, and it may function to protect the intestinal mucosa from inflammation and tumorigenesis. This protein is glycosylated and also exhibits lysophosphatidylcholine hydrolase activity. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]
