ALOX15 - arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase Gene
Also Known as LOG15; 12-LOX; 15-LOX; 15-LOX-1
Species: Homo sapiens
About ALOX15
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 168 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Biased expression in lung (RPKM 5.0), small intestine (RPKM 1.7) and 11 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the Lipoxygenase family of proteins. The encoded enzyme acts on various polyunsaturated fatty acid substrates to generate various bioactive lipid mediators such as eicosanoids, hepoxilins, lipoxins, and Other molecules. The encoded enzyme and its reaction products have been shown to regulate inflammation and immunity. Multiple pseudogenes of this gene have been identified in the human genome.
