Function
MDR3 is an Energy-dependent phospholipid efflux translocator that acts as a positive regulator of biliary lipid secretion. Functions as a floppase that translocates specifically phosphatidylcholine (PC) from the inner to the outer leaflet of the canalicular membrane bilayer into the canaliculi of hepatocytes. Translocation of PC makes the biliary phospholipids available for extraction into the canaliculi lumen by bile salt mixed micelles and therefore protects the biliary tree from the detergent activity of bile salts. Plays a role in the recruitment of phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and sphingomyelin (SM) molecules to nonraft membranes and to further enrichment of SM and cholesterol in raft membranes in hepatocytes. Required for proper phospholipid bile formation (By similarity). Indirectly involved in cholesterol efflux activity from hepatocytes into the canalicular lumen in the presence of bile salts in an ATP-dependent manner. Promotes biliary phospholipid secretion as canaliculi-containing vesicles from the canalicular plasma membrane. In cooperation with ATP8B1, functions to protect hepatocytes from the deleterious detergent activity of bile salts. Does not confer multidrug resistance (By similarity)[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].

Expression
Induction: Up-regulated by PPARA. Up-regulated by compounds that cause peroxisome proliferation, such as fenofibrate (at protein level). Up-regulated by bezafibrate. Up-regulated by compounds that cause peroxisome proliferation, such as fenofibrate, bezafibrate and gemfibrozil. -
Isoforms & Post-Translational Modification
MDR3 has 3 isoforms, P21439-1: amino acid length is 1286, molecular weight is 141523 Da (predicted); P21439-2: amino acid length is 1279, molecular weight is 140682 Da (predicted); P21439-3: amino acid length is 1232, molecular weight is 135259 Da (predicted).可发生磷酸化修饰(PubMed:24723470)。第 34 位苏氨酸(Thr-34)的磷酸化是 PC 外流活性所必需的。磷酸化发生在丝氨酸和苏氨酸残基上,且依赖蛋白激酶 A 或蛋白激酶 C(PubMed:24723470)。第 44 位苏氨酸(Thr-44)和第 49 位丝氨酸(Ser-49)也可能发生磷酸化(PubMed:24723470)MDR3 存在 3 个异构体,P21439-1:氨基酸个数为 1286 个,分子量为 141523 Da (预测);P21439-2:氨基酸个数为 1279 个,分子量为 140682 Da (预测);P21439-3:氨基酸个数为 1232 个,分子量为 135259 Da (预测)。Phosphorylated (PubMed:24723470). Phosphorylation on Thr-34 is required for PC efflux activity. Phosphorylation occurs on serine and threonine residues in a protein kinase A- or C-dependent manner (PubMed:24723470). May be phosphorylated on Thr-44 and Ser-49 (PubMed:24723470)
