High impact information on CBR3

  • The structure reveals that the two calcium-binding regions on C2cPLA2 that display hydrophobic residues, CBR1 and CBR3, are partially inserted into the core of the membrane [1].
  • In addition, DNA variation panels from 10 ethnic groups presented a wide range of CBR3 V244M genotype distributions [2].
  • We pinpointed a single nucleotide polymorphism in CBR3 (CBR3 V244M) that encodes for a V244 to M244 change [2].
  • Assays with NADP(H) demonstrated a higher V(maxNADP(H)) (1.6-fold) and increased catalytic efficiency (V(maxNADP(H))/K(mNADP(H))) for CBR3 M244 compared with CBR3 V244 (p = 0.013) [2].
