ACOX3
geneOn this page
Summary
ACOX3 (acyl-CoA oxidase 3, pristanoyl, HGNC:121) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 4p16.1, encoding Peroxisomal acyl-coenzyme A oxidase 3 (O15254). Oxidizes the CoA-esters of 2-methyl-branched fatty acids.
Acyl-Coenzyme A oxidase 3 also know as pristanoyl -CoA oxidase (ACOX3)is involved in the desaturation of 2-methyl branched fatty acids in peroxisomes. Unlike the rat homolog, the human gene is expressed in very low amounts in liver such that its mRNA was undetectable by routine Northern-blot analysis or its product by immunoblotting or by enzyme activity measurements. However the human cDNA encoding a 700 amino acid protein with a peroxisomal targeting C-terminal tripeptide S-K-L was isolated and is thought to be expressed under special conditions such as specific developmental stages or in a tissue specific manner in tissues that have not yet been examined.
