CATEGORY

enzyme , signaling

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	extracellular
	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic

basic FUNCTION	dihydropyrimidase activity
	may regulate vesicle function in the growth cone
	DPYSL3 and GAP43 are both involved in neurite outgrowth, a crucial process for the differentiation of neurons
	regulates the inflammatory response of activated microglia
	dual role for DPYSL3 in regulating the actin and microtubule growth cone cytoskeleton
	DPYSL2 and DPYSL3 interacted with one another coordinately to promote growth cone development and axonal elongation
	DPYSL2 and DPYSL3 form likely complexes to bridge microtubules and actin and thus work cooperatively to regulate growth cone development and axonal elongation
	CRMP1 and DPYSL3 regulate proper orientation of the basal dendrites of layer V neurons in the cerebral cortex
	is a novel negative regulator of osteoblast differentiation
	is a protein exhibiting sex-different expression during sexual differentiation of the hypothalamic sexually dimorphic nucleus

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	is a key physiological substrate of GSK3B in regulating chromosomal alignment and mitotic progression through its effect on spindle microtubule
	increased DPYSL3 expression mediated by the activation of VEGFA signaling facilitates gastric tumor growth and metastasis, which may have clinical implications associated with a reduced survival rate in gastric cancer patients
	CAPN2 may contribute to the promoter methylation of DPYSL3 to repress its transcription, leading to the metastasis of Prostate carcinoma via enhancing VEGFC expression

Type Gene Modification Chromosome rearrangement Protein expression Protein Function constitutional     --low   in Down syndrome

Susceptibility

to Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)

Variant & Polymorphism SNP , other	variant (S541Y) of DPYSL3 in a male ASD patient, mutation resulting in altered DPYSL3 function in neurons, more severe in the male, indicating a functional link between a case-specific, rare variant of DPYSL3, and several characteristics of ASD, including sexual differences
	association between the rs147541241 variant and ALS; this variant variant appears to shorten motor neuron survival through a detrimental effect on axonal growth
