Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase FKBP3; PPIase FKBP3; 25 kDa FK506-binding protein; 25 kDa FKBP; FKBP-25; FK506-binding protein 3; FKBP-3; Immunophilin FKBP25; Rapamycin-selective 25 kDa immunophilin; Rotamase; FKBP25
Background
FKBP25 contains 1 PPIase FKBP-type domain, belongs to the FKBP-type PPIase family. FK506- and rapamycin-binding proteins (FKBPs) constitute a family of receptors for the two immunosuppressants which inhibit T-cell proliferation by arresting two distinct cytoplasmic signal transmission pathways. FKBP3 is a cis-trans prolyl isomerase enzyme that binds the immunosuppressants FK506 and rapamycin, as well as histone deacetylases, the transcription factor YY1, casein kinase II, and nucleolin. It has a higher affinity for rapamycin than for FK506 and thus may be an important target molecule for immunosuppression by rapamycin.
