Arachidonate 12-lipoxygenases

Prostaglandins & Other Lipid Mediators, 2002
Arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase introduces a molecular oxygen at carbon 12 of arachidonic acid to generate a 12-hydroperoxy derivative. The enzymes generate 12-hydroperoxy derivatives with either S- or R-configurations. There are three isoforms of 12S-lipoxygenases named after the cells where they were first identified; platelet, leukocyte and epidermis ...

Epidermal arachidonate lipoxygenase

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1983
Guinea pig skin was found to display a high lipoxygenase activity, evidenced by the formation of a hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (HETE) from exogenous [14C]arachidonic acid. The lipoxygenase activity was localized to the epidermal layer of the skin, was completely inhibited by eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA) and slightly enhanced by indomethacin ...

Arachidonate 8(S)-lipoxygenase

Prostaglandins & Other Lipid Mediators, 2002
The recently identified mouse 8(S)-lipoxygenase almost exclusively directs oxygen insertion into the 8(S) position of arachidonic acid and, with lower efficiency, into the 9(S) position of linoleic acid. The protein of 677 amino acids displays 78% sequence identity to human 15(S)-lipoxygenase-2 which is considered to be its human orthologue.

Arachidonate 12-Lipoxygenase Isozymes

1999
A lipoxygenase is an enzyme which incorporates one molecule of oxygen into arachidonic acid or other polyunsaturated fatty acids producing hydroperoxy acids with a conjugated diene system. Enzymes oxygenating at the positions 5, 8, 12 and 15 of arachidonic acid and producing the corresponding hydroperoxy eicosatetraenoic acid (HpETE) have been isolated

Mammalian Arachidonate 12-Lipoxygenases

1997
Since arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase was earlier found in platelets as the first mammalian lipoxygenase, the enzyme has been found in a variety of tissues of a number of animal species. On the basis of our studies in the last decade, we have demonstrated that there are two isoforms of 12-lipoxygenase (1).
