DeepORF is a coding potential classifier based on convolutional neural network by comparing the real Ribo-seq data. If the no-coding score < 0.5 and coding score > 0.5, then the in-frame fusion transcript is predicted as being likely translated.

FUNCTION: Adapter protein which acts downstream of several membrane receptors including cytokine, antigen, hormone, cell matrix and growth factor receptors to regulate multiple signaling pathways. Regulates osteoclast differentiation mediating the TNFRSF11A/RANK signaling. In allergic response, it plays a role in mast cells activation and degranulation through PI-3-kinase regulation. Also involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and hematopoiesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15750601, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19172738}.FUNCTION: Ceramide synthase that catalyzes formation of ceramide from sphinganine and acyl-CoA substrates, with high selectivity toward palmitoyl-CoA (hexadecanoyl-CoA; C16:0-CoA) as acyl donor (PubMed:17977534, PubMed:17609214, PubMed:23530041, PubMed:26887952, PubMed:31916624). Can use other acyl donors, but with less efficiency (By similarity). Ceramides generated by CERS6 play a role in inflammatory response (By similarity). Acts as a regulator of metabolism and hepatic lipid accumulation (By similarity). Under high fat diet, palmitoyl- (C16:0-) ceramides generated by CERS6 specifically bind the mitochondrial fission factor MFF, thereby promoting mitochondrial fragmentation and contributing to the development of obesity (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8C172, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17609214, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17977534, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23530041, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26887952, ECO:0000269|PubMed:31916624}.
