| lipoxin 6,7-dihydroreductase | <enzyme> From potatoes; generates 6,7-dihydrolipoxin b4 from incubation with 15-hpete Registry number: EC 1.3.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
|---|---|
| lipoxin A4 synthase | <enzyme> An aspect of platelet 12-lipoxygenase Registry number: EC 1.13.11.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| lipoxin B4 synthase | <enzyme> An aspect of platelet 12-lipoxygenase Registry number: EC 1.13.11.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| lipoxygenase | <enzyme> Enzyme that catalyses the oxidative conversion of arachidonic acid to the hydroxyeicosenoic acid (HETE) structure in the synthesis of leucotrienes. (18 Nov 1997) |
| lipoxygenase inhibitors | Compounds or agents that combine with lipoxygenase and thereby prevent its substrate-enzyme combination with arachidonic acid and the formation of the eicosanoid products hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid and various leukotrienes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lipoyl | The acyl radical of lipoic acid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lipoyl dehydrogenase | <enzyme> An enzyme oxidizing dihydrolipoamide at the expense of NAD+; completes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate; a part of several enzyme complexes (e.g., alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex). Decreased activity leads to neuronal loss in brain resulting in psychomotor retardation. Synonym: coenzyme factor, lipoamide dehydrogenase, lipoamide reductase (NADH), lipoyl dehydrogenase.
