Eicosadienoic acid (Δ11,14-20:2; EDA) is a rare, naturally occurring n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) found mainly in animal tissues. EDA is elongated from linoleic acid (LA), and can also be metabolized to dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (DGLA), arachidonic acid (AA), and sciadonic

Lipoxygenases are currently potential targets for therapies against asthma, artherosceloris, and cancer. Recently, inhibition studies on both soybean (SLO) and human lipoxygenase (15-HLO) revealed the presence of an allosteric site that binds both substrate, linoleic acid, and inhibitors; oleic acid

The stoichiometry of the oxygenation reaction of cis,cis-eicosa-11,14-dienoic acid catalyzed by prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase and soybean lipoxygenase has been investigated by using steady-state initial rate measurements. The rate of product formation (conjugated diene hydroperoxy and hydroxy derivatives) was followed spectrophotometrically

High intakes of linoleic acid (LA,18:2n-6) have raised concern due to possible increase in arachidonic acid (ARA, 20:4n-6) synthesis, and inhibition of alpha linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3n-3) desaturation to eicosapentaenoic (EPA, 20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3). In healthy men

The pre-steady-state phase of the oxygenase reaction of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase with cis,cis-eicosa-11, 14-dienoic acid has been studied using stopped flow techniques. Because some intermediate forms of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase are spectrally indistinguishable, the enzyme and substrate transformations were monitored
