FKBP3

FK506-binding protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the "FKBP3" gene.
Function.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the immunophilin protein family, which play a role in immunoregulation and basic cellular processes involving protein folding and trafficking. This encoded protein is a cis-trans prolyl isomerase that binds the immunosuppressants FK506 and rapamycin. It has a higher affinity for rapamycin than for FK506 and thus may be an important target molecule for immunosuppression by rapamycin.
Interactions.
FKBP3 has been shown to interact with YY1, HDAC1, Histone deacetylase 2, DNA, and Mdm2.
