1 By preferring dihydroxy sphingoid bases and C(16)/C(18) acyl-coenzyme A as substrates, Bar1p produces a structurally well defined group of ceramide species, which is the exclusive precursor for glucosylceramide biosynthesis. Glucosylceramides aspartyl protease BAR1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
2 Correlating with the absence of glucosylceramide in this yeast, a gene encoding Bar1p is missing in S. cerevisiae. Glucosylceramides aspartyl protease BAR1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
