LTA4<\/sub>H is a bifunctional zinc metalloenzyme that converts leukotriene A4<\/sub> (LTA4<\/sub>) into leukotriene B4<\/sub> (LTB4<\/sub>), one of the most potent chemotactic agents involved in acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. In this reaction, LTA4<\/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 LTA4<\/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 SN<\/sub>1 mechanism, the epoxide opens and the triene moiety of the substrate twists in such a way that the bond C6<\/sub>-C7<\/sub> adopts its cis<\/em> (Z<\/em>) configuration, thus exposing the R<\/em> face of C12<\/sub> to the addition of a water molecule hydrogen-bonded to ASP375. Thus, the two stereochemical features that are required for the bioactivity of LTB4<\/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 cis<\/em> configuration inside LTA4<\/sub>H.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
