5 lipoxygenase

General Information (Source: NCBI Gene,UniProt)

Text mining Term 5 lipoxygenase
UniProt ID LOX5_MOUSE
Name 5-LO
Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase
5-lipoxygenase
Gene Names Alox5
Taxonomy Mus musculus

General annotation

Function Catalyzes the first step in leukotriene biosynthesis, and thereby plays a role in inflammatory processes.
Subcellular location Cytoplasm. Nucleus matrix. Nucleus membrane; Peripheral membrane protein (By similarity). Note=Shuttles between cytoplasm and nucleus. Found exclusively in the nucleus, when phosphorylated on Ser-272. Calcium binding promotes translocation from the cytosol and the nuclear matrix to the nuclear envelope and membrane association (By similarity).
