General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the first step in leukotriene biosynthesis, and thereby plays a role in inflammatory processes.

Catalytic activity

Arachidonate + O2 = leukotriene A4 + H2O.

Cofactor

Binds 1 iron ion per subunit By similarity.

Binds 2 calcium ions per subunit By similarity.

Pathway

Lipid metabolism; leukotriene A4 biosynthesis.

Subunit structure

Interacts with ALOX5AP and LTC4S.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm. Nucleus matrix. Nucleus membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Note: 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.

Post-translational modification

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.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the lipoxygenase family.

Contains 1 lipoxygenase domain.

Contains 1 PLAT domain.

Binary interactions
