Gene Symbol:

Cav3 Mus musculus

Full name:

caveolin 3

Synonyms:

AI385751, Cav-3, M-cav, caveolin-3, M-caveolin

Genomic Location:

Chr 6: 112409495-112422866

Description:

This gene belongs to the caveolin family whose members encode the major protein components of caveolae, which are invaginations of plasma membrane. The encoded protein is muscle-specific and forms homooligomers in muscle cells. The protein binds and regulates phosphofructokinase M and neuronal nitric oxide synthase. It also associates with dystroph...

View Full Description

This gene belongs to the caveolin family whose members encode the major protein components of caveolae, which are invaginations of plasma membrane. The encoded protein is muscle-specific and forms homooligomers in muscle cells. The protein binds and regulates phosphofructokinase M and neuronal nitric oxide synthase. It also associates with dystrophin in muscle cells. Mutations in this gene are associated with muscular dystrophy.
