Summary: Predicted to enable ceramide cholinephosphotransferase activity and sphingomyelin synthase activity. Predicted to be involved in ceramide biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including anal depressor muscle; hypodermis; nervous system; pharynx; and reproductive system. Orthologous to human SAMD8 (sterile alpha motif domain containing 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]
