General annotation (Comments)

Function

Epoxide hydrolase that catalyzes the final step in the biosynthesis of the proinflammatory mediator leukotriene B4. Has also aminopeptidase activity.

Catalytic activity

(7E,9E,11Z,14Z)-(5S,6S)-5,6-epoxyicosa-7,9,11,14-tetraenoate + H2O = (6Z,8E,10E,14Z)-(5S,12R)-5,12-dihydroxyicosa-6,8,10,14-tetraenoate.

Cofactor

Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit By similarity.

Enzyme regulation

Inhibited by bestatin. Subject to suicide inhibition by leukotriene A4 By similarity.

Pathway

Lipid metabolism; leukotriene B4 biosynthesis.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm.

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylation at Ser-416 inhibits enzymatic activity By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase M1 family.
