Human peroxisomal palmitoyl-CoA oxidase plays a pivotal role in the beta-oxidation of fatty acids. Its importance is reflected by the severity of the disease associated with its deficiency in man. The gene was previously mapped to chromosome 17q25 with a FISH technique and is now confirmed using a PCR technique.
人类过氧化物酶体棕榈酰辅酶A氧化酶在脂肪酸的β氧化过程中起关键作用。其重要性通过人类中与其缺乏相关疾病的严重程度得以体现。该基因先前通过荧光原位杂交技术定位于17号染色体长臂25区,现在通过聚合酶链反应技术得以证实。
