acid (5-HETE). The enzyme 5-LO acts again on 5-HETE to convert it into leukotriene A4 (LTA4), an unstable epoxide. 5-HETE can be further metabolized to 5-oxo-ETE...

Leukotriene A4 (LTA4) is a leukotriene, and is the precursor for the productions of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) and leukotriene C4 (LTC4). Following the biosynthesis...

Leukotriene A4 synthase may refer to: Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase, an enzyme Arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase, an enzyme This set index page lists enzyme articles...

Leukotriene-A4 hydrolase is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction which converts Leukotriene A4 to Leukotriene B4. It is a bifunctional zinc enzyme (EC...

antileukotriene, also known as leukotriene modifier and leukotriene receptor antagonist, is a medication which functions as a leukotriene-related enzyme inhibitor...

lysosomal enzymes by these cells. It is synthesized by leukotriene-A4 hydrolase from leukotriene A4. A study at the University of California, San Diego School...

Leukotriene D4 (LTD4) is one of the leukotrienes. Its main function in the body is to induce the contraction of smooth muscle, resulting in bronchoconstriction...

Montelukast is in the leukotriene receptor antagonist family of medications. It works by blocking the action of leukotriene D4 in the lungs resulting...

The enzyme leukotriene-C4 synthase (EC 4.4.1.20) catalyzes the reaction leukotriene C4 ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } leukotriene A4 + glutathione...

act convert 5-HPETE to leukotriene A4 (LTA4). LTA4 is then metabolized either to LTB4 by leukotriene A4 hydrolase or leukotriene C4 (LTC4) by either LTC4...
