The magnetization process of the S=1/2 three-leg spin tube with an asymmetric exchange interaction in each triangle unit is investigated by the numerical exact diagonalization and the density matrix renormalization group calculation. It is found that the 1/3 magnetization plateau appears due to two different mechanisms depending on the asymmetry. The phase diagrams of the 1/3 plateau is presented. In addition some cusp-like anomalies are found in the magnetization curve.
