It has a mass of approximately 100 kDa and is broadly expressed in a variety of tissues including the liver and spleen. ORP-3 contains a pleckstrin homology domain and an oxysterol-binding domain enabling its interactions with lipids and membranes. These structural aspects allow ORP-3 to have a role in lipid transport and cellular signaling.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe protein contributes significantly to the regulation of lipid metabolism and cellular homeostasis. It is part of a complex that modulates lipid transport and signaling pathways affecting cellular growth and proliferation. ORP-3's interaction with phosphoinositides is particularly important for maintaining membrane integrity and function. These activities can influence cell movement and positioning which have implications in cellular responses to external stimuli.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe protein interacts with several key pathways including the phosphoinositide signaling pathway and the sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) pathway. In the phosphoinositide pathway ORP-3 interacts with proteins like phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate to facilitate lipid transport processes. In the SREBP pathway it indirectly influences cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. These pathways position ORP-3 as an integral component in lipid homeostasis and signaling networks.\u003cbr\u003e\nDisruptions in ORP-3 function link to lipid-related diseases such as atherosclerosis and certain cancers. In atherosclerosis ORP-3 contributes to cholesterol metabolism potentially affecting plaque formation. Its role in cancers involves its impact on cell proliferation and migration with connections to proteins such as Akt involved in cellular survival pathways. Understanding these associations helps in targeting ORP-3 for therapeutic interventions in these conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850072936617,"sku":"ab192998","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab192998","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
