The SLC22A3 protein also known as OCT3 or organic cation transporter 3 is involved in the transport of organic cations across cell membranes. It functions as a polyspecific transporter allowing it to transport a wide range of substrates including neurotransmitters and drugs. SLC22A3 has a molecular mass of approximately 61 kDa and is expressed in various tissues most notably in the brain heart and liver.
Biological function summary
SLC22A3 facilitates the uptake of monoamines such as dopamine and norepinephrine into cells influencing neurotransmitter signaling and metabolism. The protein is not part of a known complex but interacts with cellular transport mechanisms. The transport capabilities impact cellular uptake processes affecting cell signaling and homeostasis.
Pathways
SLC22A3 participates in neurotransmitter reuptake and drug metabolism pathways. Within these pathways it collaborates with transport proteins such as SLC6A4 which is responsible for serotonin uptake. SLC22A3's role in monoamine reuptake connects it to pathways regulating mood and cognitive function.
SLC22A3 links to conditions such as depression and cardiovascular diseases. Variations in its gene expression or function influence susceptibility to these conditions. In depression SLC22A3 interacts with neurotransmitter systems shared with proteins like monoamine oxidase affecting mood regulation. In cardiovascular diseases SLC22A3's expression in the heart plays a part in transporting drugs and endogenous compounds potentially impacting disease progression.
