Function | Essential hepatic enzyme that catalyzes the oxygenation of a wide variety of nitrogen- and sulfur-containing compounds including drugs as well as dietary compounds (PubMed:10759686, PubMed:30381441, PubMed:32156684). Plays an important role in the metabolism of trimethylamine (TMA), via the production of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) metabolite (PubMed:9776311). TMA is generated by the action of gut microbiota using dietary precursors such as choline, choline containing compounds, betaine or L-carnitine. By regulating TMAO concentration, FMO3 directly impacts both platelet responsiveness and rate of thrombus formation (PubMed:29981269). |

Background
FMO3 (Flavin-containing Monooxygenase 3) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FMO3 gene. The mammalian flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMO) represent a multigene family whose gene products are localized in the endoplasmic reticulum of many tissues. The FMO3 gene contains 1 noncoding and 8 coding exons. And the FMO3 gene is mapped on 1q24.3. Using quantitative RNase protection assays, FMO3 is present in low abundance in fetal liver and lung and in adult kidney and lung, and in much greater abundance in adult liver. By Western blot analysis of human liver microsomal samples ranging from 8 weeks gestation to 18 years of age, FMO1 is the major fetal isoform and FMO3 is the major adult isoform. FMO3 was expressed at intermediate levels until 11 years of age when a gender-independent increase in FMO3 expression was observed during puberty. Sufferers of trimethylaminuria may display a reduced ability to metabolize substrates for FMO3 such as nicotine. FMO3 metabolizes a number of drugs, including amphetamine, clozapine, deprenyl, metamphetamine, tamoxifen, ethionamide, thiacetazone, and sulindac sulfide.
