Functional Properties and Molecular Architecture of Leukotriene A4 Hydrolase, a Pivotal Catalyst of Chemotactic Leukotriene Formation

The leukotrienes are a family of lipid mediators involved in inflammation and allergy. Leukotriene B4 is a classical chemoattractant, which triggers adherence and aggregation of leukocytes to the endothelium at only nM concentrations. In addition, leukotriene B4 modulates immune responses, participa...
