In this reaction, LTA<sub>4<\/sub>H acts as an epoxide hydrolase with a unique and fascinating mechanism, which includes the stereoselective attachment of one water molecule to the carbon backbone of LTA<sub>4<\/sub> several methylene units away from the epoxide moiety. By combining Molecular Dynamics simulations and Quantum Mechanics\/Molecular Mechanics calculations, we obtained a very detailed molecular picture of the different consecutive steps of that mechanism. By means of a rather unusual 1,7-nucleophilic substitution through a clear S<sub>N<\/sub>1 mechanism, the epoxide opens and the triene moiety of the substrate twists in such a way that the bond C<sub>6<\/sub>-C<sub>7<\/sub> adopts its <em>cis<\/em> (<em>Z<\/em>) configuration, thus exposing the <em>R<\/em> face of C<sub>12<\/sub> to the addition of a water molecule hydrogen-bonded to ASP375. Thus, the two stereochemical features that are required for the bioactivity of LTB<sub>4<\/sub> appear to be closely related. The noncovalent \u03c0-\u03c0 stacking interactions between the triene moiety and two tyrosines (TYR267 and, especially, TYR378) that wrap the triene system along the whole reaction explain the preference for the <em>cis<\/em> configuration inside LTA<sub>4<\/sub>H.<\/h5>\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading alignfull has-text-align-left has-normal-font-size\"> <\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/dmrqb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/355\/2023\/03\/ijms-23-03140-g005-1024x728.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1046\" width=\"962\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/molbiomed\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/355\/2023\/03\/ijms-23-03140-g005-1024x728.png 1024w, https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/molbiomed\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/355\/2023\/03\/ijms-23-03140-g005-300x213.png 300w, https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/molbiomed\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/355\/2023\/03\/ijms-23-03140-g005-768x546.png 768w, https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/molbiomed\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/355\/2023\/03\/ijms-23-03140-g005-1536x1092.png 1536w, https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/molbiomed\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/355\/2023\/03\/ijms-23-03140-g005-2048x1456.png 2048w, https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/molbiomed\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/355\/2023\/03\/ijms-23-03140-g005-1200x853.png 1200w, https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/molbiomed\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/355\/2023\/03\/ijms-23-03140-g005-1980x1408.png 1980w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 962px) 100vw, 962px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Estructura optimizada del entorno del zinc.
