Description

PCYOX1L (prenylcysteine oxidase 1 like) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 5q32. It is predicted to be involved in the catabolism of prenylated proteins, specifically the oxidative cleavage of prenylcysteine residues. The protein is localized to peroxisomes and may play a role in cellular detoxification processes. The gene is expressed in various tissues, with highest expression in the liver and kidney.
