The hydroxylated β-carbon in B-ceramides was in the (R)-configuration. Genetic knockout of β-hydroxy acyl-CoA dehydratases in HAP1 cells increased B-ceramide levels, suggesting that β-hydroxy acyl-CoA, an FA-elongation cycle intermediate in the endoplasmic reticulum, is a substrate for B-ceramide synthesis. We anticipate that our methods and findings will help to elucidate the role of each ceramide class in skin barrier formation and in the pathogenesis of skin disorders.
