ACOX3 - acyl-CoA oxidase 3, pristanoyl Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About ACOX3
This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 189 orthologues and 14 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in esophagus (RPKM 3.5), skin (RPKM 3.1) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
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.
