Description
ALOX15B is a member of the lipoxygenase family of structurally related nonheme iron dioxygenases involved in the production of fatty acid hydroperoxides. ALOX15B converts arachidonic acid exclusively to 15S-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid, while metabolizing linoleic acid less effectively. ALOX15B gene is located in a cluster of related genes and a pseudogene that spans approximately 1 kilobases on the short arm of chromosome 17. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.
