Peroxisomal trans-2-enoyl-CoA reductase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PECR gene.[5][6][7][8] Research suggests that the (human) enzyme participates in the conversion of phytol to phytanic acid in the peroxisomes, which is part of the process of breaking down phytol.[9] In particular, it catalyzes reactions of the form:

a (2E)-enoyl-CoA + NADPH + H+ a 2,3-saturated acyl-CoA + NADP+

With affinity for trans-2-enoyl-CoAs of lengths between 4:1 and 16:1.[9]
