Lysyl hydroxylase (or procollagen-lysine 5-dioxygenase) is an oxygenase enzyme that catalyzes the hydroxylation of lysine to hydroxylysine.[1][2] This reaction is necessary to the formation and stabilization of collagen. It takes place following protein synthesis (as a post-translational modification). The protein is a membrane-bound homodimeric enzyme that is localized to the cisternae (lumen) of the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
It requires iron and vitamin C as cofactors.
Pathology
A deficiency in its cofactor, Vitamin C, is associated with Scurvy.
