basic FUNCTION
| catalyzing the hydroxylation of lysyl residues in collagenous sequences |
|
multifunctional enzyme capable of catalyzing hydroxylation of lysyl residues and O-glycosylation of hydroxylysyl residues producing either monosaccharide (Gal) or disaccharide (Glc-Gal) derivatives |
|
collagen galactosyltransferase activity (Risteli 2009) |
|
is the multifunctional collagen-modifying enzyme possessing LH, hydroxylysine galactosyltransferase (GT), and galactosylhydroxylysine-glucosyltransferase (GGT) activities |
|
major function of PLOD3 in osteoblasts is to glucosylate galactosylhydroxylysine residues in type I collagen and impairment of this PLOD3 function significantly affects type I collagen fibrillogenesis |
|
PLOD3 is an important regulator of adiponectin biosynthesis, secretion and activity |
|
modulates cancer progression and metastasis |
