Function

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on ether bonds (ether hydrolases). The systematic name of this enzyme class is (7E,9E,11Z,14Z)-(5S,6S)-5,6-epoxyicosa-7,9,11,14-tetraenoate hydrolase. Other names in common use include LTA4 hydrolase, LTA4H, and leukotriene A4 hydrolase. This enzyme participates in arachidonic acid metabolism.

Catalyzed reaction

tructure

As of late 2007, 4 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes PDB link|1GW6, PDB link|1H19, PDB link|1HS6, and PDB link|1SQM.
