medium-chain fatty acid omega-1 hydroxylase activity [GO_0120503]
Catalysis of the reaction: an (omega-1)-ethyl medium-chain fatty acid + O2 + reduced [NADPH-hemoprotein reductase] = an (omega-1)-hydroxy-medium-chain fatty acid + H+ + H2O + oxidized [NADPH-hemoprotein reductase. A medium-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing 6 to 12 carbons.

Class
Catalysis of the reaction: an (omega-1)-ethyl medium-chain fatty acid + O2 + reduced [NADPH-hemoprotein reductase] = an (omega-1)-hydroxy-medium-chain fatty acid + H+ + H2O + oxidized [NADPH-hemoprotein reductase. A medium-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing 6 to 12 carbons.
While there is not universal consensus on the lengths of short-, medium-, long- and very-long-chain fatty acids, the GO uses the definitions in ChEBI (see CHEBI:26666, CHEBI:59554, CHEBI:15904 and CHEBI:27283).
