Description

<jats:p>Substrate recognition mechanism of soybean lipoxygenase-1 (L -1) was studied by using an entire series of (ω3Z,ω6Z,ω9Z)-C<jats:sub>12~</jats:sub>C<jats:sub>22</jats:sub>-trienoic acids and -trienols. The maximum activity of L-1 was obtained with C<jats:sub>20</jats:sub>-trienoic acid of all the substrates used. Among trienols, the maximum activity was obtained with C<jats:sub>15</jats:sub>-trienol. Analysis of the products obtained by the reaction of these substrates with L-1 revealed that trienoic acids were oxygenated mostly at ω6 position independently on the chain length. The hydroperoxy group at ω6 was introduced at (S)-configuration with over 98% enantioselectivity. Although the products formed from most trienols were also selectively oxygenated at ω6 position, only C<jats:sub>15</jats:sub>-trienol was oxygenated at both ω6 and ω10 positions in the ratio of ω6/ω10 = 48/52.</jats:p>
