Figure Legend Snippet: Greatly reduced but residual presence of PHS-containing CERs in the epidermis of Degs2 KO mice. Lipids were extracted from epidermis of postnatal day 0 WT (n = 3) and Degs2 KO (n = 3) mice, and CERs ( A and B ) and acyl-CERs ( C and D ) were measured via LC-MS/MS. Values presented are means + SD (∗∗ p < 0.01; Student’s t test) of the total quantities of PHS-CERs, SPH-CERs, and DHS-CERs ( A ); the quantity of each PHS-CER species containing the indicated FA moiety ( B ); the total quantities of acyl-PHS-CERs, acyl-SPH-CERs, and acyl-DHS-CERs ( C ); and the quantity of each acyl-PHS-CER species containing the indicated ω-hydroxy FA ( D ). CER, ceramide; DHS-CER, DHS containing CER; FA, fatty acid; PHS-CER, PHS-containing CER; SPH-CER, SPH-containing CER.
Techniques Used: Liquid Chromatography with Mass Spectroscopy
Figure Legend Snippet: Greatly reduced but residual presence of PHS-containing CERs in DEGS2 KO keratinocytes. A , DEGS2 KO keratinocytes were generated using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. The exon structure ( black , coding sequence; white , untranslated regions) of human DEGS2 and the nucleotide sequences of WT and DEGS2 KO keratinocytes (KO clones 1 and 2) around the guide RNA target sequences ( light blue ) and the protospacer-adjacent motif sequences ( magenta ) in exon 2 are shown. B – D , lipids were extracted from controls (controls 1 and 2) and DEGS2 KO keratinocytes (KO 1 and 2) differentiated for 14 days, and CERs and acyl-CERs were analyzed via LC-MS/MS. Values presented are means + SD (n = 3; ∗∗ p < 0.01; ∗ p < 0.05; Scheffé’s test) of the total quantities of PHS-CERs, SPH-CERs, DHS-CERs, acyl-PHS-CERs, acyl-SPH-CERs, and acyl-DHS-CERs ( B ); the quantity of each PHS-CER species containing the indicated FA moiety ( C ); and the quantity of each acyl-PHS-CER species containing the indicated ω-hydroxy FA ( D ). E , HEK 293T cells were transfected with pCE-puro 3× FLAG-1 (vector) or pCE-puro 3× FLAG-FA2H plasmid. After 24 h of transfection, lipids were extracted, and 2-hydroxy palmitic acid-containing SPH-CER (2-OH CER) and PHS-CERs were quantified via LC-MS/MS. Values presented are means + SD (n = 3; ∗∗ p < 0.01; ∗ p < 0.05; Student’s t test). CER, ceramide; DHS-CER, DHS containing CER; PHS-CER, PHS-containing CER; SPH-CER, SPH-containing CER.

Figure Legend Snippet: Preference for VLC substrates in the hydroxylation reaction by DEGS2. A and B , DEGS1 KO HAP1 cells were transfected with pEFh-3× FLAG-1 (vector), pEFh-3× FLAG-DEGS1, or pEFh-3× FLAG-DEGS2 plasmid. After 24 h, cells were labeled with 2 μM d 7 -DHS for 4 h. A , proteins were prepared and subjected to immunoblotting (IB) using anti-FLAG or anti-GAPDH (loading control) antibodies. B , lipids were extracted, and d 7 -labeled SPH-CERs, PHS-CERs, SPH-HexCERs, PHS-HexCERs, SPH-SMs, and PHS-SMs were quantified via LC-MS/MS. Values presented are means + SD of the respective lipids, with FA species color-coded (n = 3; ∗∗ p < 0.01; Dunnett’s test versus vector control). CER, ceramide; DHS-CER, DHS containing CER; FA, fatty acid; HexCER, monohexosylceramide; ND, not detected; PHS-CER, PHS-containing CER; SM, sphingomyelin; SPH-CER, SPH-containing CER.

Figure Legend Snippet: Tissue distribution of t20:0 PHS-CERs and their production by DEGS2. A and B , lipids were extracted from six tissues (kidney, esophagus, anterior stomach, posterior stomach, small intestine, and large intestine) of 2-month-old WT mice (n = 3), and the quantities of SPH-CERs and PHS-CERs containing LCBs with chain lengths from d/t16 to d/t26 were quantified via LC-MS/MS. Values presented are means + SD of the total quantities of SPH-CERs and PHS-CERs ( A ; LCB chain lengths are color coded) and the quantities of t18:0- or t20:0-containing PHS-CERs ( B ; FA chain lengths are color-coded). C , lipids were extracted from the esophagus and anterior stomach of six-month-old WT (n = 3) and Degs2 KO (n = 3) mice, and the quantities of t18:0 and t20:0 PHS-CERs were examined via LC-MS/MS. Values presented are means + SD of the total quantities of PHS-CERs, with FA species color coded. D and E , esophagus and anterior stomach of 6-month-old WT and Degs2 KO mice were prepared and subjected to hematoxylin/eosin staining ( D ) and lucifer yellow assay ( E ). Scale bars, 50 μm ( D ) and 10 μm ( E ). F , lipids were extracted from the esophagus and anterior stomach of 6-month-old WT (n = 3) and Degs2 KO (n = 3) mice, and PHS-CERs, SPH-CERs containing 2-hydroxy FA (2-OH CERs), and SPH-CERs containing 3-hydroxy FA (3-OH CERs) were quantified via LC-MS/MS.
