BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
alpha-linolenate:oxygen (9R)-oxidoreductase
Reaction(IUBMB)
alpha-linolenate + O2 = (9R,10E,12Z,15Z)-9-hydroperoxyoctadeca-10,12,15-trienoate [RN:
R09810 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
Product
(9R,10E,12Z,15Z)-9-hydroperoxyoctadeca-10,12,15-trienoate [CPD:
C19936 ]
Comment
In cyanobacteria the enzyme is involved in oxylipin biosynthesis. The enzyme also converts linoleate to (9R,10E,12Z)-9-hydroperoxyoctadeca-10,12-dienoate.
