Arachidonate 15-Lipoxygenase

Arakidonat 15-lipoxigenas

Svensk definition

Ett enzym som katalyserar oxideringen av arakidonsyra till 15-hydroperoxiarakidonat (15-HPETE), som snabbt omvandlas till 15-hydroxi-5,8,11,13-eikosatetraenoat (15-HETE). 15-hydroperoxiderna bildas fö reträdesvis i neutrofiler och lymphocyter. EC 1.13.11.33.

Engelsk definition

An enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of arachidonic acid to yield 15-hydroperoxyarachidonate (15-HPETE) which is rapidly converted to 15-hydroxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoate (15-HETE). The 15-hydroperoxides are preferentially formed in NEUTROPHILS and LYMPHOCYTES.
