Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Function:** SLC27A3 is a long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase, responsible for the transport of long-chain fatty acids across cellular membranes and their subsequent incorporation into acyl-CoA derivatives. 2. **Cellular localization:** The protein is primarily localized to the plasma membrane and the endoplasmic reticulum, where it participates in fatty acid metabolism. 3. **Expression pattern:** SLC27A3 is significantly expressed in various cell types, including Sertoli cells, monocytes, dendritic cells, endothelial cells, and germ cells. 4. **Pathway involvement:** SLC27A3 is involved in several metabolic pathways, including fatty acid metabolism, long-chain fatty acid transport, and very long-chain fatty acid-CoA biosynthesis. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Fatty acid metabolism:** SLC27A3 participates in the metabolism of long-chain fatty acids, converting them into acyl-CoA derivatives that can be used for energy production, lipid synthesis, or storage. 2. **Long-chain fatty acid transport:** The protein facilitates the transport of long-chain fatty acids across cellular membranes, allowing them to be incorporated into acyl-CoA derivatives. 3. **Very long-chain fatty acid-CoA biosynthesis:** SLC27A3 is involved in the biosynthesis of very long-chain fatty acyl-CoAs, which are essential for the production of cholesterol and other biomolecules. 4. **Atp binding:** The protein interacts with ATP, which is necessary for the transport of long-chain fatty acids across cellular membranes. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Metabolic disorders:** Alterations in SLC27A3 expression or function have been implicated in various metabolic disorders, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and dyslipidemia. 2. **Inflammation:** SLC27A3 has been shown to regulate inflammatory responses, particularly in the context of fatty acid metabolism. 3. **Cardiovascular disease:** The protein's involvement in fatty acid metabolism and inflammation has significant implications for the development of cardiovascular disease. 4. **Cancer:** SLC27A3 has been implicated in the regulation of fatty acid metabolism in cancer cells, which can contribute to cancer progression and metastasis. In conclusion, the SLC27A3 gene plays a crucial role in the regulation of fatty acid metabolism, and its dysregulation has significant implications for human health. Further research is necessary to fully understand the mechanisms by which SLC27A3 influences metabolic processes and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target for various diseases.
