Function
Phosphoinositide-binding protein which associates with both cell and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes (PubMed:16143324). Can bind to the ER membrane protein VAPA and recruit VAPA to plasma membrane sites, thus linking these intracellular compartments (PubMed:25447204). The ORP3-VAPA complex stimulates RRAS signaling which in turn attenuates integrin beta-1 (ITGB1) activation at the cell surface (PubMed:18270267, PubMed:25447204). With VAPA, may regulate ER morphology (PubMed:16143324). Has a role in regulation of the actin cytoskeleton, cell polarity and cell adhesion (PubMed:18270267). Binds to phosphoinositides with preference for PI(3,4)P2 and PI(3,4,5)P3 (PubMed:16143324). Also binds 25-hydroxycholesterol and cholesterol (PubMed:17428193).

Supplementary info
- This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.
- Activity summary
ORP-3 also known as Oxysterol-binding protein-related protein 3 is a member of the oxysterol-binding protein family. 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.
- Biological function summary
The 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.
- Pathways
The 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.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Disruptions 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.
