Structural basis for the activation of acid ceramidase

Acid ceramidase (aCDase) hydrolyzes lysosomal membrane ceramide into sphingosine and its dysfunction leads to a variety of disease phenotypes. Here, the authors present structures of aCDase in its proenzyme and autocleaved forms, which provides insight into its mechanism of action.
