Abstract

Flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 mRNA and protein levels showed robust diurnal rhythms in mouse liver and cell lines.

  • Diurnal variations in flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 expression are associated with changes in drug metabolism.
  • In vitro studies revealed altered N-oxidation rates of procainamide corresponding to the enzyme's expression at different times.
  • E4 promoter-binding protein 4 negatively regulates flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 expression in liver cell lines.
  • Brain and muscle ARNT-like protein-1 positively influences the expression of flavin-containing monooxygenase 3.
  • Transcriptional regulation involves E4 promoter-binding protein 4 binding to a specific element and brain and muscle ARNT-like protein-1 activating three distinct sites.
