IV. Literature review

[source]
Gene nameALOX5AP
Protein nameArachidonate 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (FLAP) (MK-886-binding protein)
Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein
SynonymsFLAP
DescriptionFUNCTION: Required for leukotriene biosynthesis by ALOX5 (5-lipoxygenase). Anchors ALOX5 to the membrane. Binds arachidonic acid, and could play an essential role in the transfer of arachidonic acid to ALOX5. Binds to MK-886, a compound that blocks the biosynthesis of leukotrienes. .
