Sphingomyelinase in Pig and Human Epidermis
The enzyme sphingomyelinase (sphingomyelin phosphorylcholine phosphohydrolase E.C.3.1.4.12) which hydrolyzes sphingomyelin to ceramide (N-acylsphingosine) and phosphorylcholine was identified in the subcellular fractions of pig and human epidermis. The enzyme has an optimum pH of 4.5 to 5 and is activated by Triton X-100 (0.1% w/v).

Molecular mechanism of bacterial sphingomyelinase C
ウエルシュ菌のガス壊疽の病原因子であるα毒素(Cp-SMase)は,スフィンゴミエリン(SM)とホスファチジルコリン(PC)を分解する活性を有し,致死,壊死,そして,溶血活性を示す毒素である。セレウス菌のスフィンゴミエリナーゼ(Bc-SMase)は,致死,壊死活性を示さないが,リン脂質組成として,ホスファチジルコリンを含まず,スフィンゴミエリン(SM)を50%以上有するヒツジ赤血球に対して溶血作用を示す。Cp-SMaseは,細胞膜中でグリセロリン脂質の代謝亢進を惹起することによってラットの血管平滑筋の収縮やウサギ赤血球の溶血を引き起こすことが明らかにされてきたが,Bc-SMaseの作用機構に関しては不明であった。そこで,毒素作用とスフィンゴミエリナーゼ(SMase)活性の関係を解明するため ...
