Enables sphingosine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cytokine production; positive regulation of immune effector process; and regulation of primary metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including blood vessel development; positive regulation of cell population proliferation; and sphingosine metabolic process. Located in several cellular components, including cytosol; endoplasmic reticulum; and mitochondrial inner membrane.
