Gene Name AOC3
Uniprot ID AOC3_HUMAN
KEGG Pathway hsa:8639
Protein Family Copper/topaquinone oxidase family
Protein Function
Cell adhesion protein that participates in lymphocyte extravasation and recirculation by mediating the binding of lymphocytes to peripheral lymph node vascular endothelial cells in an L-selectin-independent fashion. Has semicarbazide-sensitive (SSAO) monoamine oxidase activity. May play a role in adipogenesis.
