arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase

Cat No.
EXWM-0553
Description
Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase, also known as ALOX5, 5-lipoxygenase, 5-LOX, or 5-LO, is a non-heme iron-containing enzyme (EC 1.13.11.34) that in humans is encoded by the ALOX5 gene. Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase is a member of the lipoxygenase family of enzymes. It transforms EFA substrates into leukotrienes as well as a wide range of other biologically active products. ALOX5 is a current target for pharmaceutical intervention in a number of diseases.

80619-02-9
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
leukotriene-A4 synthase; Δ5-lipoxygenase; 5Δ-lipoxygenase; arachidonic 5-lipoxygenase; arachidonic acid 5-lipoxygenase; C-5-lipoxygenase; LTA synthase; leukotriene A4 synthase
Reaction
arachidonate + O2 = leukotriene A4 + H2O (overall reaction); (1a) arachidonate + O2 = (6E,8Z,11Z,14Z)-(5S)-5-hydroperoxyicosa-6,8,11,14-tetraenoate; (1b) (6E,8Z,11Z,14Z)-(5S)-5-hydroperoxyicosa-6,8,11,14-tetraenoate = leukotriene A4 + H2O
Notes
This item requires custom production and lead time is between 5-9 weeks. We can custom produce according to your specifications.
