A new lipoxygenase from the agaric fungus Agrocybe aegerita: Biochemical characterization and kinetic properties.

Oxylipins are metabolites with a variety of biological functions. However, the biosynthetic pathway is widely unknown. It is considered that the first step is the oxygenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids like linoleic acid. Therefore, a lipoxygenase (LOX) from the edible basidiomycete Agrocybe aeg...
