| Ceramide synthase | CERS1 (LASS1,LAG1) |
19p13.11 | Brain, skeletal muscle, testis for C18 |
| CERS2 (LASS2,TMSG1) |
1q21.3 | Kidney, liver and other >12 organs for C20-C26 | |
| CERS3(LASS3) | 15q26.3 | Skin, testis for C22-C26 α-hydroxy chains | |
| CERS4(LASS4) | 19p13.2 | Low in all tissues for C18-C22. Esp. skin, leucocytes, heart, liver. | |
| CERS5(LASS5) | 12q13.12 | Low in all tissues for C16. Esp. muscle and brain. Major in lung epithelia. | |
| CERS6(LASS6) | 2q24.3 | Low in all tissues for C14-C16 | |
| Dihydroceramide Δ4-desaturase | DEGS1(DES1) | 1q42.11 | The enzyme hydroxylates DES to form phytoceramide.[1] |
| DEGS2(DES2) | 14q32.2 | ||
