ME3 - malic enzyme 3 Gene
Also Known as NADP-ME
Species: Homo sapiens
About ME3
This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 220 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 4.2), fat (RPKM 4.1) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
Malic enzyme catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of malate to pyruvate using either NAD+ or NADP+ as a cofactor. Mammalian tissues contain 3 distinct isoforms of malic enzyme: a cytosolic NADP(+)-dependent isoform, a mitochondrial NADP(+)-dependent isoform, and a mitochondrial NAD(+)-dependent isoform. This gene encodes a mitochondrial NADP(+)-dependent isoform. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene, but the biological validity of some variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
