Paraoxonase 3, also known as PON3, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the PON3 gene. [4] [5]
This gene is a member of the paraoxonase family and lies in a cluster on chromosome 7 with the other two family members. The encoded protein is secreted into the bloodstream and associates with high-density lipoprotein (HDL). The protein also rapidly hydrolyzes lactones and can inhibit the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), a function that is believed to slow the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Alternatively spliced variants which encode different protein isoforms have been described; however, only one has been fully characterized. [5]
Apolipoprotein C-II, or apolipoprotein C2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the APOC2 gene.
Apolipoprotein C-IV, also known as apolipoprotein C4, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the APOC4 gene.
Sterol regulatory element-binding protein cleavage-activating protein, also known as SREBP cleavage-activating protein or SCAP is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SCAP gene.
Serum paraoxonase and arylesterase 1 (PON1) also known as A esterase , homocysteine thiolactonase or serum aryldialkylphosphatase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PON1 gene. Paraoxonase 1 has esterase and more specifically paraoxonase activity. PON1 is the first discovered member of a multigene family also containing PON2 and PON3, the genes for which are located adjacent to each other on chromosome 7.
Tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TFPI2 gene.
NADPH oxidase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NOX1 gene.
Protease-activated receptor 4 (PAR-4), also known as coagulation factor II (thrombin) receptor-like 3, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the F2RL3 gene.
Serum paraoxonase/arylesterase 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PON2 gene.
Dual specificity protein kinase TTK also known as Mps1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the TTK gene.
Ras-related protein Rap-2b is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RAP2B gene. RAP2B belongs to the Ras-related protein family.
Protein-S-isoprenylcysteine O-methyltransferase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ICMT gene.
Nucleoporin 160 (Nup160) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NUP160 gene.
Early growth response protein 3 is a protein in humans, encoded by the EGR3 gene.
DNA-directed RNA polymerase I subunit RPA34 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CD3EAP gene.
Chymotrypsin-like protease CTRL-1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CTRL gene.
Anaphase-promoting complex subunit 11 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ANAPC11 gene.
AMY-1-associating protein expressed in testis 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MAATS1 gene.
Paraoxonases are a family of mammalian enzymes with aryldialkylphosphatase activity. There are three paraoxonase isozymes, which were originally discovered for their involvement in the hydrolysis of organophosphates.
Myosin-15 also known as myosin, heavy chain 15 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYH15 gene.
Vesicle transport through interaction with t-SNAREs homolog 1A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VTI1A gene.
