Study of the conversion of leukotriene A4 to leukotriene B4 driven by leukotriene A4 hydrolase Miquel Canyelles Niño LTA4H is a bifunctional zinc metalloenzyme that converts leukotriene A4 (LTA4) into leukotriene B4 (LTB4), one of the most potent chemotactic agents involved in acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. In this reaction, LTA4H acts as an epoxide […]
