Disruption of long‐chain base hydroxylation alters growth and impacts sphingolipid synthesis in Physcomitrella patens

Abstract Sphingolipids have roles as membrane structural components and as bioactive molecules in plants. In Physcomitrella patens, 4‐hydroxysphinganine (phytosphingosine, t18:0) is the predominant sphingolipid long‐chain base (LCB). To assess the functional significance of t18:0, CRISPR‐Cas9 mutage...
