Background
This gene encodes one of two sphingosine kinase isozymes that catalyze the phosphorylation of sphingosine into sphingosine 1-phosphate. Sphingosine 1-phosphate mediates many cellular processes including migration, proliferation and apoptosis, and also plays a role in several types of cancer by promoting angiogenesis and tumorigenesis. The encoded protein may play a role in breast cancer proliferation and chemoresistance. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Function
alternative products:Experimental confirmation may be lacking for some isoforms,catalytic activity:ATP + sphinganine = ADP + sphinganine 1-phosphate.,catalytic activity:ATP + sphingosine = ADP + sphingosine 1-phosphate.,cofactor:Magnesium.,function:Catalyzes the phosphorylation of sphingosine to form sphingosine 1-phosphate (SPP), a lipid mediator with both intra-and extracellular functions. Also acts on D-erythro-dihydrosphingosine, D-erythro-sphingosine and L-threo-dihydrosphingosine.,similarity:Contains 1 DAGKc domain.,
