| Name | medium-chain fatty acid omega-hydroxylase activity |
| ID | GO_0140981 |
| collection_id | Molecular function |
| Description | Catalysis of the reaction: an omega-methyl-medium-chain fatty acid + O2 + reduced [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] = an omega-hydroxy-medium-chain fatty acid + H+ + H2O + oxidized [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase]. A medium-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing 6 to 12 carbons. |
| Comment | While there is not universal consensus on the lengths of short-, medium-, long- and very-long-chain fatty acids, the GO uses the definitions in ChEBI (see CHEBI:26666, CHEBI:59554, CHEBI:15904 and CHEBI:27283). |
