Crystal structure of mammalian acid sphingomyelinase
Mutations in acid sphingomyelinase result in toxic accumulation of sphingomyelin and cause Niemann-Pick disease. Here, the authors report structures of mammalian acid sphingomyelinase, which reveal details of the molecular mechanism of acid sphingomyelinase function and regulation.
