Application

FMO3 is the major human hepatic form.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Flavin-Containing Monooxygenase-3 (FMO3) facilitates the oxidization of several drugs, chemicals, and xenobiotics. Human FMO3 is also involved in the synthesis of N-oxide of trimethylamine (TMAO) from trimethylamine (TMA). Mutations in the FMO3 gene are associated with trimethylaminuria or fish odor syndrome. Deficiency of the FMO3 gene results in lower plasma TMAO levels, which may reduce the risk of developing atherosclerosis and thrombosis.

General description

Flavin-Containing Monooxygenase-3 (FMO3) is a member of the flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) family of enzymes. It is highly expressed in the human liver.
