Different isoforms of 15-lipoxygenase have been purified to homogeneity from mammalian sources, including reticulocytes and leukocytes, and complementary DNAs encoding them have been cloned. The reticulocyte 15-lipoxygenase is a cytosolic protein, whose amino acid sequence is 65% similar to human 5-lipoxygenase and 45% similar to type I soybean lipoxygenase (whose tridimensional structure has been resolved by... 

LOX name for a lipoxygenase - names have been kept as much as possible in line with the names used for the LOXs from a species. For potato tuber LOX,a large number of highly similar sequences are available which have been numbered I a-1 g. Gene genomic sequences available in the EMBL nucleotide sequence database (release 49.0). DNA cDNA sequences available in the EMBL nucleotide sequence database (release 49.0) SWISS protein sequences available in the SWISSPROT protein sequence database (release 34.0). PIR protein sequences in the PIR protein sequence database (release 50,0). Remarks between brackets length In amino acid residues of partial sequences. Includes further names of specific clones, alternative names for a LOX used by the author.
