| Accepted name: |
9,12-octadecadienoate 8-hydroperoxide 8S-isomerase |
| Reaction: |
(8R,9Z,12Z)-8-hydroperoxyoctadeca-9,12-dienoate = (7S,8S,9Z,12Z)-7,8-dihydroxyoctadeca-9,12-dienoate |
| Other name(s): |
8-hydroperoxide isomerase (ambiguous); (8R,9Z,12Z)-8-hydroperoxy-9,12-octadecadienoate mutase ((7S,8S,9Z,12Z)-7,8-dihydroxy-9,12-octadecadienoate-forming) |
| Systematic name: |
(8R,9Z,12Z)-8-hydroperoxyoctadeca-9,12-dienoate hydroxymutase [(7S,8S,9Z,12Z)-7,8-dihydroxyoctadeca-9,12-dienoate-forming] |
| Comments: |
The enzyme contains heme. The bifunctional enzyme from Gaeumannomyces graminis catalyses the oxidation of linoleic acid to (8R,9Z,12Z)-8-hydroperoxyoctadeca-9,12-dienoate (cf. EC 1.13.11.60, linoleate 8R-lipoxygenase), which is then isomerized to (7S,8S,9Z,12Z)-5,8-dihydroxyoctadeca-9,12-dienoate [3]. |
