Uniprot Description

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. Interacts with COTL1, the interaction is required for stability and efficient catalytic activity

By similarity.

Subcellular location: Cytoplasm

By similarity. Nucleus matrix

By similarity. Nucleus membrane; Peripheral membrane protein

By similarity. Note: Shuttles between cytoplasm and nucleus. Found exclusively in the nucleus, when phosphorylated on Ser-271. Calcium binding promotes translocation from the cytosol and the nuclear matrix to the nuclear envelope and membrane association

By similarity.

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-271 prevents export from the nucleus

By similarity.

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the lipoxygenase family.Contains 1 lipoxygenase domain.Contains 1 PLAT domain.

Product Notes

The Hamster ALOX-5 alox5 (Catalog #AAA013475) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA013475 ELISA Kit recognizes Hamster ALOX-5. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Arachidonate 5-Lipoxygenase, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
