The first group of FADS7_Degs1 activators includes compounds that affect ceramide synthesis, either by acting as precursors for ceramide synthesis (sphingosine, sphinganine, palmitoyl-CoA, and serine) or by blocking the conversion of ceramides into other sphingolipids (C6 ceramide and PDMP). These compounds enhance the activity of FADS7_Degs1 by increasing the demand for ceramide synthesis or by increasing the availability of substrates for ceramide synthesis, respectively.
The second category of FADS7_Degs1 activators includes compounds that impact the synthesis or degradation of other sphingolipids (D609, and N,N-dimethylsphingosine). These compounds elevate the functional activity of FADS7_Degs1 by manipulating the levels of other sphingolipids. D609 and N,N-dimethylsphingosine increase the availability of substrates for ceramide synthesis, thereby indirectly enhancing FADS7_Degs1 activity.

D609 is an inhibitor of phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C, leading to an accumulation of phosphocholine and diacylglycerol. This build-up can enhance the activity of FADS7_Degs1, which is involved in the synthesis of diacylglycerol into ceramides. | ||||||
