Lipoxygenase
Lipoxidase | Linoleate-Oxygen Oxidoreductase | Lipoxygenase-1 | Lipoxygenase-2 | Lipoxygenases | Linoleate Oxygen Oxidoreductase | Lipoxygenase 1 | Lipoxygenase 2 | Oxidoreductase, Linoleate-Oxygen
An enzyme of the oxidoreductase class that catalyzes reactions between linoleate and other fatty acids and oxygen to form hydroperoxy-fatty acid derivatives. Related enzymes in this class include the ARACHIDONATE LIPOXYGENASES; ARACHIDONATE 5-LIPOXYGENASE; ARACHIDONATE 12-LIPOXYGENASE; and ARACHIDONATE 15-LIPOXYGENASE. EC 1.13.11.12. |

Arachidonate 12-Lipoxygenase
12-Lipoxygenase | Arachidonic Acid 12-Lipoxygenase | 12 Lipoxygenase | 12-Lipoxygenase, Arachidonate | 12-Lipoxygenase, Arachidonic Acid | Arachidonate 12 Lipoxygenase | Arachidonic Acid 12 Lipoxygenase
An enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of arachidonic acid to yield 12-hydroperoxyarachidonate (12-HPETE) which is itself rapidly converted by a peroxidase to 12-hydroxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoate (12-HETE). The 12-hydroperoxides are preferentially formed in platelets. EC 1.13.11.31. |

Arachidonate 15-Lipoxygenase
15-Lipoxygenase | Arachidonic Acid 15-Lipoxygenase | 15 Lipoxygenase | 15-Lipoxygenase, Arachidonate | 15-Lipoxygenase, Arachidonic Acid | Arachidonate 15 Lipoxygenase | Arachidonic Acid 15 Lipoxygenase
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. EC 1.13.11.33. |

Arachidonate Lipoxygenases
Arachidonic Acid Lipoxygenase | Lipoxygenase, Arachidonic Acid | Lipoxygenases, Arachidonate
Enzymes catalyzing the oxidation of arachidonic acid to hydroperoxyarachidonates (HPETES). These products are then rapidly converted by a peroxidase to hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETES). The positional specificity of the enzyme reaction varies from tissue to tissue. The final lipoxygenase pathway leads to the leukotrienes. EC 1.13.11.- . |

Arachidonate 5-Lipoxygenase
5-Lipoxygenase | Arachidonic Acid 5-Lipoxygenase | LTA4 Synthase | Leukotriene A Synthase | Leukotriene A4 Synthase | Leukotriene A4 Synthetase | 5 Lipoxygenase | 5-Lipoxygenase, Arachidonate | 5-Lipoxygenase, Arachidonic Acid | Synthase, LTA4
An enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of arachidonic acid to yield 5-hydroperoxyarachidonate (5-HPETE) which is rapidly converted by a peroxidase to 5-hydroxy-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoate (5-HETE). The 5-hydroperoxides are preferentially formed in leukocytes. EC 1.13.11.34. |
