Prenylcysteine oxidase 1, an emerging player in atherosclerosis

Banfi et al. investigate the role of Prenylcysteine oxidase 1 (PCYOX1), an enzyme implicated in catabolism of prenylated cysteine, in human and murine atherosclerosis. They find that loss of PCYOX1 is anti-atherogenic and understanding its biology and functions can potentially provide significant th...
