Other Information

**Key Characteristics** OAS3 is a member of the 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetase family, which consists of three isoforms: OAS1, OAS2, and OAS3. OAS3 is the largest isoform and is responsible for the production of 2'-5'-oligoadenylates. The gene is highly conserved across species, suggesting its importance in the innate immune response. OAS3 is a cytoplasmic enzyme that requires a metal ion cofactor for its activity. It is also a negative regulator of chemokine production, which is essential for the prevention of excessive inflammation during viral infections. **Pathways and Functions** OAS3 is involved in several pathways that are crucial for the antiviral defense: 1. **Interferon signaling pathway**: OAS3 is a key component of the interferon signaling pathway, which is activated in response to viral infections. It produces 2'-5'-oligoadenylates, which activate PKR and induce the expression of ISGs. 2. **Antiviral response**: OAS3 is essential for the antiviral response, as it produces 2'-5'-oligoadenylates that inhibit viral replication. 3. **Cytokine signaling**: OAS3 is also involved in cytokine signaling, particularly in the production of interferon-alpha (IFN-α) and interferon-beta (IFN-β). 4. **Immune system**: OAS3 is highly expressed in immune cells, including macrophages and dendritic cells, where it plays a critical role in the regulation of immune responses. **Clinical Significance** OAS3 has significant clinical implications, particularly in the treatment of viral infections: 1. **Viral infections**: OAS3 is essential for the antiviral defense against viral infections, such as influenza, herpes simplex virus, and HIV. 2. **Antiviral therapy**: OAS3 inhibitors, such as ribavirin, have been used to treat viral infections, including hepatitis C and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections. 3. **Cancer therapy**: OAS3 has been shown to have antitumor activity, and its inhibitors are being explored as potential cancer therapies. 4. **Autoimmune diseases**: OAS3 is also involved in the regulation of immune responses in autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. In conclusion, OAS3 is a crucial gene involved in the innate immune response, specifically in the antiviral defense mechanism. Its dysregulation has significant clinical implications, particularly in the treatment of viral infections and autoimmune diseases. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms of OAS3 and its role in human disease.
