Background Information
Serine palmitoyltransferase long chain base subunit 2 (SPTLC2) is one of the subunits of the heterodimeric molecule Serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT). Sptlc2 deficiency not only affected T cell sphingolipid anabolism but also led to prolonged activation of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (PMID: 30952607).
