    • Human Gene Id:
    • 240
    • Human Swiss Prot No:
    • P09917
    • Mouse Swiss Prot No:
    • P48999
    • Storage Stability:
    • 2-8°C/6 months
    • Other Name:
    • Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) (5-lipoxygenase) (EC 1.13.11.34)
    • Detection Method:
    • Colorimetric
    • Background:
    • catalytic activity:Arachidonate + O(2) = leukotriene A(4) + H(2)O.,cofactor:Binds 1 iron ion per subunit.,cofactor:Binds 2 calcium ions per subunit.,function:Catalyzes the first step in leukotriene biosynthesis, and thereby plays a role in inflammatory processes.,pathway:Lipid metabolism; leukotriene A4 biosynthesis.,PTM:Serine phosphorylation by MAPKAPK2 is stimulated by arachidonic acid. Phosphorylation on Ser-523 by PKA has an inhibitory effect. Phosphorylation on Ser-272 prevents export from the nucleus.,similarity:Belongs to the lipoxygenase family.,similarity:Contains 1 lipoxygenase domain.,similarity:Contains 1 PLAT domain.,subcellular location:Shuttles between cytoplasm and nucleus. Found exclusively in the nucleus, when phosphorylated on Ser-272. Calcium binding promotes translocation from the cytosol and the nuclear matrix to the nuclear envelope and membrane association.,subunit:Interacts with ALOX5AP and LTC4S.,
