Facts about Lysyl oxidase homolog 3.
Required for somite boundary formation by catalyzing oxidation of fibronectin (FN1), enhancing integrin signaling in myofibers and their adhesion to the myotendinous junction (MTJ) (PubMed:26954549). Acts as a regulator of inflammatory response by inhibiting differentiation of naive CD4(+) T-cells into T-helper Th17 or regulatory T-cells (Treg): acts by interacting with STAT3 in the nucleus and catalyzing both deacetylation and oxidation of lysine residues on STAT3, leading to disrupt STAT3 dimerization and inhibit STAT3 transcription activity (PubMed:28065600).

Expressed in palate: predominantly present in the palate mesenchyme and tongue (at protein level) (PubMed:26307084). In spine, expressed in the original intervertebral disk, cartilage primordia, anterior and posterior longitudinal ligaments, meninges of spinal cord, lung and heart (PubMed:26307084). In eyes, strongly expressed in the skin of the eyelid and weakly expressed in the cornea and sclera (PubMed:26307084). In lung, predominantly expressed in the pulmonary mesenchyme (PubMed:27645581). In developing muscle, expressed at myofiber ends (at protein level) (PubMed:26954549).
