PHYH — Phytanoyl-CoA 2-hydroxylase

PHYH belongs to a gene co-expression module in 3 of 28 SCUBA cell types. Each module groups genes that rise and fall together in that cell type; the genes it shares a module with are its closest co-expression partners there.

Function

Catalyzes the 2-hydroxylation of not only racemic phytanoyl- CoA and the isomers of 3-methylhexadecanoyl-CoA, but also a variety of other mono-branched 3-methylacyl-CoA esters (with a chain length of at least seven carbon atoms) and straight-chain acyl-CoA esters (with a chain length longer than four carbon atoms). Does not hydroxylate long and very long straight chain acyl-CoAs or 2-methyl- and 4-methyl- branched acyl-CoAs.
