Summary: Prenylcysteine is released during the degradation of prenylated proteins. PCYOX1 catalyzes the degradation of prenylcysteine to yield free cysteines and a hydrophobic isoprenoid product (Tschantz et al., 1999 [PubMed 10585463]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
Expression: Ubiquitous expression in fat (RPKM 61.1), kidney (RPKM 49.9) and 23 other tissues See more

Elevated prenylcysteine oxidase 1 (PCYOX1) activity could help to propagate the oxidative burden of low density lipoproteins (LDLs), thus making PCYOX1 a potential pharmacological target and a new biomarker in cardiovascular disease [Review].

Addition of the substrate farnesylcysteine to lipoprotein resulted in a time-dependent generation of H(2)O(2) which was stronger in very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) than in LDL or HDL, reflecting the greater protein content of PCL1 in VLDL.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
