ORMDL sphingolipid biosynthesis regulator 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ORMDL3 gene.^[5] This gene is associated with asthma in childhood.^[6] Transgenic mice which overexpress human ORMDL3 have increased levels of IgE. This correlated with increased numbers of macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils, CD4+ and enhanced Th2 cytokine levels in the lung tissue.^[7]

Localisation[]

Mouse and human ORMDL3 gene encode 153 aa. ORMDL family consists of three members (ORMDL1-3) which are localised in the membrane of endoplasmic reticulum (ER).^[8] Human ORMDL1, ORMDL2 and ORMDL3 are localised in chromosomes 2q32, 12q13.2 a 17q21.^[9]

Function[]

ORMDL3 plays role in sphingolipid synthesis like negative regulators.^[8]^[10] It also has a role in regulation of Ca²⁺ levels in the endoplasmic reticulum. ER is very important for generation, signalisation, functioning and store of intracellular Ca²⁺. There are channels, which control the exit of Ca²⁺ from the ER into the cytoplasm and also pumps (sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ ATPase (SERCA)) which return Ca²⁺ back to the ER.^[11] Dysregulation of Ca²⁺ has the key role in several pathological conditions like dysfunction of SERCA, asthma,^[12] and Alzheimer's.^[13]

Clinical significance[]

Mutations in ORMDL3 are associated with inflammatory disease like Crohn's disease, type 1 diabetes,^[14] and rheumatoid arthritis.^[15]
