additional information thermodynamic properties of structurally distinct leukotriene A4 hydrolase inhibitors. An in silico method for the determination of stabilized water molecules in the binding site of the apo structure of LTA4H is used to interpret the measured thermodynamic data and provided insights for design of novel LTA4H inhibitors. Fluorescence-based assay system with recombinant His6-tagged enzyme is used for determination of the inhibition kinetics Homo sapiens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction inhibition of the LTB4 conversion ameliorates inflammation and leads to accumulation of pro-resolving Lipoxin A4 (LXA4) while inhibition of PGP degradation potentiates neutrophilic inflammation Homo sapiens
additional information binding pocket of the apo LTA4H protein (PDB entry 5FWQ) with bound Zn2+, overview Homo sapiens
physiological function the human leukotriene A4 hydrolase (LTA4H) is a 69 kDa protein involved in the arachidonic acid cascade. LTA4H converts leukotriene A4 (LTA4) into leukotriene B4 (LTB4).1 LTB4 triggers the adhesion and aggregation of leukocytes in the endothelium2 and acts as an attractant for different leukocytes (monocytes, neutrophils, macrophages, and dendritic cells). The overproduction of LTB4 has been associated with different pathological conditions and diseases. The leukotriene A4 hydrolase (LTA4H) is a bifunctional enzyme, containing a peptidase and a hydrolase activity both activities having opposing functions regulating inflammatory response. The hydrolase activity is responsible for the conversion of leukotriene A4 to pro-inflammatory leukotriene B4 Homo sapiens
