Abstract: | In this article, regulation of human 5-lipoxygenase enzyme activity is reviewed. First, structural properties and enzyme activities are described. This is followed by the activating factors: Ca2+, membranes, ATP, and lipid hydroperoxide. Also, studies on phosphorylation of 5-lipoxygenase and nuclear localization sequences are reviewed. |
