Biochem/physiol Actions
Leukotriene A4 Hydrolase human (LTA4H) is a bifunctional zinc metalloenzyme that converts LTA4 into Leukotriene B4, and also demonstrates aminopeptidase activity. Leukotriene B4 is a lipid chemoattractant that plays critical roles in inflammaton, immune responses, host defenses against infections, and lipid homeostasis. Inhibition of LTA4H in a mouse model decreases LTB4 in the airways and attenuates airway inflammation and airway hyperreactivity through modulation of T cell and dendritic cell function .
Physical form
Supplied as a solution in 100mM Tris, pH 8.0, containing 20% glycerol and 100mM potassium chloride.
Application
Leukotriene A4 Hydrolase human (LTA4H) is a drug target for anti-inflammation, and for cancer prevention and therapy. It is also suitable for screening inhibitors of Leukotriene B4 synthesis. LTA4H is used to study allergic asthma and airway hyperresponsiveness .

Leukotriene-A4 hydrolase (EC 3.3.2.6) cleaved the NH2-terminal amino acid from several tripeptides, typified by arginyl-glycyl-aspartic acid, arginyl-glycyl-glycine, and arginyl-histidyl-phenylalanine, with catalytic efficiencies (kcat/Km) > or = 1 x 10(6) M-1 s-1. This exceeds by 10-fold the kcat/Km for its lipid

Allergic asthma is characterized by reversible airway obstruction, lung inflammation, and airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). Previous studies using leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) receptor 1-deficient mice and adoptive transfer experiments have suggested that LTB(4) plays a role in lung inflammation and AHR. In

The leukotriene A4 hydrolase (LTA4H) is a bifunctional enzyme with epoxy hydrolase and aminopeptidase activities. We hypothesize that the LTA4H aminopeptidase activity alleviates neutrophilic inflammation, which contributes to cigarette smoke (CS)-induced emphysema by clearing proline-glycine-proline (PGP), a triamino acid chemokine

Mouse liver homogenates transformed leukotriene A4 into a 5,6-dihydroxy-7,9,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid. This novel enzymatic metabolite of leukotriene A4 was characterized by physical means including ultraviolet spectroscopy, high performance liquid chromatography, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. After subcellular fractionation, the enzymatic activity was

The epoxide hydrolases (EHs) are enzymes present in all living organisms, which transform epoxide containing lipids by the addition of water. In plants and animals, many of these lipid substrates have potent biologically activities, such as host defenses, control of
