A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of various endogenous substrates, including fatty acids and their oxygenated derivatives (oxylipins) (PubMed:8486631, PubMed:9675028, PubMed:11461919, PubMed:15145985, PubMed:16547005, PubMed:16820285, PubMed:18182499, PubMed:18065749, PubMed:18577768). Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR; NADPH-ferrihemoprotein reductase) (PubMed:9675028). May play a role in inactivation of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory oxylipins during the resolution of inflammation (PubMed:8486631, PubMed:9675028, PubMed:11461919, PubMed:15145985, PubMed:15364545, PubMed:16547005, PubMed:16820285, PubMed:18182499, PubMed:18065749, PubMed:18577768). Catalyzes predominantly the oxidation of the terminal carbon (omega-oxidation) of oxylipins in myeloid cells, displaying higher affinity for arachidonate metabolite leukotriene B4 (LTB4) (PubMed:8486631, PubMed:9675028, PubMed:11461919, PubMed:15364545). Inactivates LTB4 via three successive oxidative transformations to 20-hydroxy-LTB4, then to 20-oxo-LTB4 and to 20-carboxy-LTB4 (PubMed:9675028). Has omega-hydroxylase activity toward long-chain fatty acid epoxides with preference for 8,9-epoxy-(5Z,11Z,14Z)-eicosatrienoate (EET) and 9,10-epoxyoctadecanoate (PubMed:15145985). Omega-hydroxylates monohydroxy polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), including hydroxyeicosatetraenoates (HETEs) and hydroxyeicosapentaenoates (HEPEs), to dihydroxy compounds (PubMed:15364545, PubMed:9675028). Contributes to the degradation of saturated very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) such as docosanoic acid, by catalyzing successive omega-oxidations to the corresponding dicarboxylic acid, thereby initiating chain shortening (PubMed:18182499). Has low hydroxylase activity toward PUFAs (PubMed:18577768, PubMed:11461919). Catalyzes predominantly the oxidation of the terminal carbon (omega-oxidation) of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) (PubMed:11461919, PubMed:16820285, PubMed:18577768). Participates in the conversion of arachidonic acid to 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), a signaling molecule acting both as vasoconstrictive and natriuretic with overall effect on arterial blood pressure (PubMed:11461919, PubMed:16820285, PubMed:18577768). Has high omega-hydroxylase activity toward other PUFAs, including eicosatrienoic acid (ETA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) (PubMed:16820285, PubMed:18577768). Can also catalyze the oxidation of the penultimate carbon (omega-1 oxidation) of PUFAs with lower efficiency (PubMed:18577768). Contributes to the degradation of saturated very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) such as docosanoic acid and hexacosanoic acid, by catalyzing successive omega-oxidations to the corresponding dicarboxylic acids, thereby initiating chain shortening (PubMed:16547005, PubMed:18182499). Omega-hydroxylates long-chain 3-hydroxy fatty acids, likely initiating the oxidative conversion to the corresponding 3-hydroxydicarboxylic fatty acids (PubMed:18065749). Has omega-hydroxylase activity toward long-chain fatty acid epoxides with preference for 8,9-epoxy-(5Z,11Z,14Z)-eicosatrienoate (EET) and 9,10-epoxyoctadecanoate (PubMed:15145985). an organic molecule

Optimum pH is 7.5. The omega-hydroxylation of VLCFAs follows dual-enzyme Michaelis-Menten kinetics, suggesting simultaneous binding of two substrate molecules. The high affinity Michaelis-Menten constants are shown. Lipid metabolism; leukotriene B4 degradation. Lipid metabolism; arachidonate metabolism. Selectively expressed in blood neutrophils and bone marrow cells. Coexpressed with CYP4F3B in prostate, ileum and trachea. Selectively expressed in liver and kidney. It is also the predominant CYP4F isoform in trachea and tissues of the gastrointestinal tract. Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
