1.13.11.61

Accepted name:

linolenate 9R-lipoxygenase

Reaction:

α-linolenate + O₂ = (9R,10E,12Z,15Z)-9-hydroperoxyoctadeca-10,12,15-trienoate

Glossary:

linoleate = (9Z,12Z)-octadeca-9,12-dienoate
α-linolenate = (9Z,12Z,15Z)-octadeca-9,12,15-trienoate

Other name(s):

NspLOX; (9R)-LOX; linoleate 9R-dioxygenase

Systematic name:

α-linolenate:oxygen (9R)-oxidoreductase

Comments:

In cyanobacteria the enzyme is involved in oxylipin biosynthesis. The enzyme also converts linoleate to (9R,10E,12Z)-9-hydroperoxyoctadeca-10,12-dienoate.
