Journal ArticleDOI
Arachidonate 12-lipoxygenases
TL;DR: The role of 12S-lipoxygenase in atherosclerosis and neurotransmission is not yet fully understood as mentioned in this paper, although the structures and enzymatic properties have been elucidated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two immunologically and catalytically distinct arachidonate 12-lipoxygenases of bovine platelets and leukocytes
TL;DR: The 12-lipoxygenases of bovine leukocytes and platelets were immunologically and catalytically distinct enzymes that showed different heat-instabilities and reaction time courses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of the oxygenation of phospholipids by the porcine leukocyte and human platelet arachidonate 12-lipoxygenases.

TL;DR: Porcine leukocyte 12-lipoxygenase is capable of oxygenating not only free polyenoic fatty acids but also more complex substrates such as phospholipids and biomembranes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase of platelet-type in human epidermal cells.
TL;DR: The epidermal cell homogenate is similar to human platelet 12-lipoxygenase in terms of immunogenicity, catalytic property, and primary structure, and distinct from leukocyte 12- Lip Oxygenase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Catalytic properties of human platelet 12-lipoxygenase as compared with the enzymes of other origins.
TL;DR: 12-lipoxygenases of human and bovine platelets were catalytically distinct from the porcine and bivine leukocyte enzymes in terms of their reactivities not only with linoleic and linolenic acids, but also with leukotriene A4 as lipoxin precursor.
