ALOX15 active human

NA.32

The gene ALOX15 (arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase) is mapped to human chromosome 17p13. It is mainly present in the epithelial cells in the upper airways, reticulocytes, eosinophils and macrophages. ALOX15 belongs to the dioxygenases family. It is an IL-4 (interleukin 4)/IL-13 target gene.
ALOX-15, also known as 15LOX-1, ω-6 lipoxygenase, or arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase (GenBank Accession No. NM_001140) amino acids 2- 662 (end) with N-terminal FLAG-tag, MW = 75kDa, expressed in Sf9 insect cells via a Baculovirus expression system.

Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling.

ALOX15 (arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase) is involved in homeostatic as well as pathological responses. ALOX15 is responsible for the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids (at the 15 position) to active hydroperoxy and epoxy metabolites. It is also responsible for the conversion of linoleic acid to anti-tumor 13-S-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid. ALOX15 is required for IL-4 (interleukin-4)/IL-13-mediated macrophage polarization. In mice, it is a negative regulator of bone mineral density. It is also involved in fatty acid metabolism. It controls MAPK (mitogen activated protein kinase) signaling in human airway epithelial cells using phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein.
