Descriptor araquidonato 5-lipoxigenasa
Entry term(s) 5-lipooxigenasa
Scope note: Enzima que cataliza la oxidación del ácido araquidónico para formar 5-hidroperoxiaraquidonato (5-HPETE) que es convertido rápidamente por la peroxidasa en 5-hidroxi-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoato (5-HETE). Los 5-hidroperóxidos se forman preferentemente en los leucocitos. EC 1.13.11.34.
