ID:PLOD3_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 3; EC=1.14.11.4; AltName: Full=Lysyl hydroxylase 3; Short=LH3; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: Forms hydroxylysine residues in -Xaa-Lys-Gly- sequences in collagens. These hydroxylysines serve as sites of attachment for carbohydrate units and are essential for the stability of the intermolecular collagen cross-links. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: L-lysine-[procollagen] + 2-oxoglutarate + O(2) = (2S,5R)-5-hydroxy-L-lysine-[procollagen] + succinate + CO(2). COFACTOR: Iron. COFACTOR: Ascorbate. SUBUNIT: Homodimer. INTERACTION: Q9BQY4:RHOXF2; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-741582, EBI-372094; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Rough endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Lumenal side. DISEASE: Defects in PLOD3 are the cause of lysyl hydroxylase 3 deficiency (LH3 deficiency) [MIM:612394]; also known as bone fragility with contractures arterial rupture and deafness. LH3 deficiency is a connective tissue disorder. The syndrome is characterized by congenital malformations severely affecting many tissues and organs and revealing features of several collagen disorders, most of them involving COL2A1 (type II collagen). The findings suggest that the failure of lysyl hydroxylation and hydroxylysyl carbohydrate addition, which affects many collagens, is the molecular basis of this syndrome. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 Fe2OG dioxygenase domain.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
