VNN3P Gene

Name vanin 3, pseudogene
Description This gene is the central gene in a cluster of three vanin genes on chromosome 6q23-q24. Extensive alternative splicing has been described; the two most common variants are represented as RefSeqs. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nThe vanin gene family comprises ectoenzymes that catalyze the conversion of pantetheine into pantothenic acid and cysteamine, a reaction implicated in responses to injury and inflammation. In skin pathology, notably psoriasis, vanin‐3 is markedly upregulated—by nearly 19‐fold—in the differentiated epidermal layers. This upregulation is driven by psoriasis‐associated proinflammatory Th17/Th1 cytokines and suggests that heightened pantetheinase activity contributes to an inflammatory‐regenerative epidermal differentiation program."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn a separate study focusing on chronic heart failure, gene expression profiling revealed that increased expression of VNN3 is independently associated with an elevated neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio.
