Background Information
AMACR(Alpha-methyl acyl-CoA racemase) belongs to the CaiB/BaiF CoA-transferase family. A mitochondrial and peroxisomal enzyme catalyzes the conversion of 2R stereoisomers of phytanic and pristanic acid to their S counterparts. AMACR has previously been shown to be a highly sensitive marker for colorectal and clinically localized prostate cancer (PCa). However, AMACR expression is down-regulated at the transcript and protein level in hormone-refractory metastatic PCa, suggesting a hormone-dependent expression of AMACR(PMID:12213712). It has 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing and can form a dimer of 70-75 kDa(PMID:21812041). Defects in AMACR cause alpha-methyl acyl-CoA racemase deficiency (AMACRD) and congenital bile acid synthesis defect type 4 (CBAS4).
