ORMDL family; Evidence form suggests that ORMDLs are involved in protein folding in the ER. Orm proteins have been identified as negative regulators of sphingolipid synthesis that form a conserved complex with serine palmitoyltransferase, the first and rate-limiting enzyme in sphingolipid production. This novel and conserved protein complex, has been termed the SPOTS complex (serine palmitoyltransferase, Orm1/2, Tsc3, and Sac1).
