Function |
Catalyzes the omega- and (omega-1)-hydroxylation of various fatty acids such as laurate, myristate and palmitate. Has little activity toward prostaglandins A1 and E1. Oxidizes arachidonic acid to 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15611369, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1739747, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7679927}.
