Cytochrome P450, family 109, also known as CYP109, is a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase family,[1] many members are associated with fatty acid hydroxylation.[2] The first gene identified in this family is the CYP109A1 and CYP109B1 from Bacillus subtilis.[3] CYP109 is one of the only three P450 families shared in bacteria and archaea, the other two are CYP147 and CYP197.[1] Genes in this family are co-present on archaeal plasmids and chromosomes, implying the plasmid-mediated horizontal gene transfer of these genes from bacteria to archaea.[1]
