HACL1 catalyzes the cleavage of 2-hydroxyphytanoyl-CoA to pristanal producing formyl-CoA in the process. This enzyme has a molecular mass of approximately 50 kDa. HACL1 is mainly expressed in peroxisomes which are subcellular compartments involved in lipid metabolism.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\n2-Hydroxyphytanoyl-CoA lyase serves a critical function in the metabolism of fatty acids derived from dietary sources especially chlorophyll-rich plant materials. It operates as part of the α-oxidation pathway a unique metabolic route for the degradation of phytanic acid which is a type of branched-chain fatty acid that cannot be processed by β-oxidation. HACL1 is not known to be part of a larger enzyme complex unlike some other enzymes involved in fatty acid metabolism.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe α-oxidation pathway is where HACL1 plays its significant role. This pathway starts with the conversion of phytanic acid into 2-hydroxyphytanoyl-CoA which HACL1 then cleaves. The α-oxidation pathway connects to the broader lipid metabolism processes in the body. Related proteins involved in these pathways include fatty aldehyde dehydrogenase (FALDH) which further processes the metabolic products of HACL1 activity.\u003cbr\u003e\nDisruptions in the function of HACL1 can lead to Refsum disease which is characterized by the accumulation of phytanic acid in the body resulting in neurological symptoms. HACL1's role can be connected to proteins involved in peroxisomal functions like peroxisome biogenesis factor proteins whose dysfunction might also contribute to metabolic disorders similar to Refsum disease such as Zellweger spectrum disorders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46844179054761,"sku":"ab197025","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab197025","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
