Sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase, also known as acid sphingomyelinase and encoded by the SMPD1 gene, is a lysosomal phosphodiesterase which belongs to the acid sphingomyelinase family (1). SMPD1 catalyzes the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to ceramide and phosphorylcholine. Ceramide, a bioactive lipid, has emerged as an important signaling molecule involved in a variety of cellular processes such as cell differentiation, apoptosis, and proliferation (2). Activation of SMPD1 occurs by the removal, chemical modification or dimerization of its C-terminal cysteine residue (3). Deficiencies of SMPD1 result in a lysosomal storage disorder referred to as Niemann-Pick disease (4). rhSMPD1 was expressed without the last three C-terminal residues, and is therefore constitutively active.

Scientific Data Images for Human SMPD1 Antibody
Western Blot Shows SMPD1 Specificity Using Knockdown Cell Line.
Western blot shows culture media of U‑87 MG human glioblastoma/astrocytoma parental cell line and SMPD1 knockdown U-87 MG cell line (KD). Nitrocellulose membrane was probed with Mouse Anti-Human SMPD1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB5348) followed by HRP-conjugated secondary antibody. A specific band was detected for SMPD1 at approximately 69.9 kDa (as indicated) in the parental U-87 MG cell line, but is significantly reduced in the knockdown U-87 MG cell line. Primary antibody concentration used: 2.5 µg/mL. The Ponceau stained transfer of the blot is shown. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions.

U‑87 MG human glioblastoma/astrocytoma cell line culture medium were prepared and immunoprecipitation was performed using 2.0 μg of Mouse Anti-Human SMPD1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB5348) pre-coupled to Dynabeads Protein G. Immunoprecipitated SMPD1 was detected in Western Blot with MAB5348 used at 1/500. The Ponceau stained transfer of the blot is shown. SM=4% starting material; UB=4% unbound fraction; IP=immunoprecipitate; HC=antibody heavy chain. Image, protocol and testing courtesy of YCharOS Inc.

Western Blot
A specific band was detected for SMPD1 at approximately 69.9 kDa (as indicated) in the parental U-87 MG cell line, but is significantly reduced in the knockdown U-87 MG cell line.
Neutralization
Measured by its ability to neutralize Recombinant Human SMPD1 (0.5 µg/mL, Catalog # 5348-PD) cleavage of the substrate 2-N-Hexadecanoylamino- 4-nitrophenylphosphorylcholine (HNPPC, 250 µM). The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 3.0 µg/mL
