Separate peroxisomal oxidases for fatty acyl-CoAs and trihydroxycoprostanoyl-CoA in human liver

Fatty acyl-CoAs as well as the CoA esters of the bile acid intermediates di- and trihydroxycoprostanic acids are beta-oxidized in peroxisomes. The first reaction of peroxisomal beta-oxidation is catalyzed by acyl-CoA oxidase. We recently described the presence of two fatty acyl-CoA oxidases plus a t...
