Protein-lysine-6 oxidase; LOX (EC 1.4.3.13), a 30kD copper-containing amine oxidase, belongs to a heterogeneous family of enzymes that oxidize primary amine substrates to reactive aldehydes.
It plays a vital role in the formation and repair of ECM.
Localized both in the cytosol and nucleus, it catalyzes the oxidation and deamination of epsilon-NH2 group of lysine and hydroxylysine residues to alpha-aminoadipic-delta-semialdehyde.
This is the first step that initiates the covalent cross-linking of collagen and tropoelastin resulting in the formation of insoluble collagen and elastic fibers in the extracellular matrix.
LOX is a multifunctional enzyme having diverse biological functions such as developmental regulation, tumor suppression, cell motility and cellular senescence.
Deficiency of LOX is seen in certain carcinomas and 3X-linked recessive human connective tissue disorders—Cutis Laxa.
