the acyl-CoA synthetase, ACSL4, belongs to a five member family of enzymes that esterify mainly arachidonic acid into acyl-CoA. Role of ACSL4 and acyl-CoA thioesterase, ACOT2, in the production of lipooxygenase metabolites in breast cancer cells, regulation, overview. ACSL4 is the rate-limiting enzyme for intramitochondrial arachidonic acid generation and export, for the conversion to lipooxygenase metabolites |
