Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Location and Expression:** ACOX3 is located on the X chromosome and is highly expressed in various tissues, including cardiac myocytes, corneal epithelial cells, and neurons. 2. **Function:** ACOX3 catalyzes the oxidation of pristanoyl-CoA, a key intermediate in the fatty acid biosynthetic pathway. 3. **Pathways:** ACOX3 is involved in several cellular pathways, including beta-oxidation of pristanoyl-CoA, fatty acid binding, fatty acid metabolism, and lipid homeostasis. 4. **Proteins:** ACOX3 is a peroxisomal protein that exhibits pristanoyl-CoA oxidase activity. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Beta-oxidation of pristanoyl-CoA:** ACOX3 plays a crucial role in the beta-oxidation of pristanoyl-CoA, a key intermediate in the fatty acid biosynthetic pathway. This process involves the sequential removal of two-carbon units from pristanoyl-CoA, resulting in the production of acetyl-CoA and pristanoyl-CoA. 2. **Fatty acid binding:** ACOX3 is involved in the binding of fatty acids to their respective carriers, such as albumin and lipoproteins. 3. **Fatty acid metabolism:** ACOX3 regulates fatty acid metabolism by controlling the production and utilization of fatty acids in various tissues. 4. **Lipid homeostasis:** ACOX3 maintains lipid homeostasis by regulating the levels of fatty acids and phospholipids in cells. 5. **Peroxisomal lipid metabolism:** ACOX3 is involved in the peroxisomal metabolism of fatty acids, which is essential for the removal of toxic intermediates and the production of energy. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Cardiovascular diseases:** ACOX3 has been implicated in the development of cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease, due to its role in fatty acid metabolism. 2. **Immunological disorders:** ACOX3 has been linked to immunological disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis, due to its involvement in lipid homeostasis and inflammation. 3. **Neurological disorders:** ACOX3 has been implicated in neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, due to its role in fatty acid metabolism and neuronal function. 4. **Cancer:** ACOX3 has been associated with cancer, particularly in the context of fatty acid metabolism and energy production. In conclusion, ACOX3 is a critical gene involved in fatty acid metabolism, lipid homeostasis, and immunological processes. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, including cardiovascular, immunological, and neurological disorders. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the role of ACOX3 in human health and disease, and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target.
