ABSTRACT
Sphingolipid biosynthesis occurs in both the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus. Ceramide synthesized in the ER is transported to the Golgi and incorporated into complex sphingolipids. Here, we present a step-by-step protocol to analyze sphingolipid metabolism in budding yeast. Ceramide and inositolphosphorylceramide (IPC) are classes of sphingolipids present in yeast and are metabolically labeled with radioactive precursors. This protocol for metabolic labeling can be used to investigate ceramide transport in an in vivo environment. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Ikeda et al. (2020).
