Linoleate 10R-lipoxygenase

Linoleate 10R-lipoxygenase (, 10R-DOX, (10R)-dioxygenase, 10R-dioxygenase) is an enzyme with systematic name linoleate:oxygen (10R)-oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * linoleate + O2 $$\rightleftharpoons$$ (8E,10R,12Z)-10-hydroperoxy-8,12-octadecadienoate

Linoleate 10R-lipoxygenase is involved in biosynthesis of oxylipins.
