PCYOX1

Prenylcysteine is released during the degradation of prenylated proteins. PCYOX1 catalyzes the degradation of prenylcysteine to yield free cysteines and a hydrophobic isoprenoid product (Tschantz et al., 1999 [PubMed 10585463]).[supplied by OMIM

prenylcysteine oxidase 1

Prenylcysteine oxidase that cleaves the thioether bond of prenyl-L-cysteines, such as farnesylcysteine and geranylgeranylcysteine (PubMed:10585463, PubMed:11078725, PubMed:12186880).
Only active against free prenylcysteines and not prenylcysteine residues within prenylated proteins or peptides (By similarity).
Involved in the final step in the degradation of prenylated proteins, by degrading prenylcysteines after the protein has been degraded (PubMed:10585463).
