Description

PHYHIP encodes a protein that interacts with phytanoyl-CoA 2-hydroxylase (PHYH), a peroxisomal enzyme involved in the alpha-oxidation of branched-chain fatty acids. The PHYHIP protein may modulate PHYH activity or localization. The gene is expressed in multiple tissues, with highest levels in the brain, and has been implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders.

Disease Associations

Protein Summary

PHYHIP is a 366-amino acid protein that interacts with phytanoyl-CoA 2-hydroxylase. It is localized to the cytoplasm and peroxisome, and may play a role in peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation. The protein contains a conserved domain of unknown function (DUF).
