Gene information for AOC3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID8639
Official gene symbolAOC3
Full nameamine oxidase, copper containing 3 (vascular adhesion protein 1)
Aliases,HPAO,SSAO,VAP-1,VAP1,
Gene summaryCopper amine oxidases catalyze the oxidative conversion of amines to aldehydes in the presence of copper and quinone cofactor. The product is a major protein on the adipocyte plasma membrane. It has adhesive properties and also has functional monoamine oxidase activity.
