Src Homology 3 domain of Melanoma Inhibitory Activity 3 protein MIA3, also called TANGO or TANGO1, acts as a tumor suppressor of malignant melanoma. It is downregulated or lost in melanoma cells lines. Unlike other MIA family members, MIA3 is widely expressed except in hematopoietic cells. MIA3 is an ER resident transmembrane protein that is required for the loading of collagen VII into transport vesicles. SNPs in the MIA3 gene have been associated with coronary arterial disease and myocardial infarction. MIA3 contains an N-terminal SH3-like domain, similar to MIA. It is a member of the recently identified family that also includes MIA, MIAL, and MIA2. MIA is a single domain protein that adopts a SH3 domain-like fold; it contains an additional antiparallel beta sheet and two disulfide bonds compared to classical SH3 domains. Unlike classical SH3 domains, MIA does not bind proline-rich ligands. |
