Supplementary information

FLAP also known as ALOX5AP is an important protein in the leukotriene biosynthetic pathway. It functions mechanically as a membrane-associated protein that facilitates the transfer of arachidonic acid to 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) a critical step in the production of leukotrienes. FLAP has a molecular mass of approximately 18 kDa and is primarily expressed in cells of the myeloid lineage such as neutrophils monocytes and macrophages.
Biological function summary

FLAP plays an essential role in the inflammatory response and is a component of the leukotriene synthesis complex. This complex is responsible for the production of leukotrienes which are potent lipid mediators that contribute to inflammation and immune regulation. By regulating leukotriene synthesis FLAP supports processes like chemotaxis cell aggregation and smooth muscle contraction essential for the body's response to inflammation.

Pathways

The FLAP signaling pathway is integral to the leukotriene metabolic pathway. It facilitates the interaction between arachidonic acid and 5-LOX leading to the generation of leukotrienes such as LTA4 and LTB4. These molecules are involved in numerous processes including bronchoconstriction and migration of leukocytes. Proteins related to FLAP within this pathway include 5-LOX and LTC4 synthase which further convert leukotrienes into biologically active compounds.

FLAP is associated with asthma and cardiovascular diseases. Its role in producing leukotrienes links it to the pathogenesis of inflammatory conditions. Elevated levels of leukotrienes mediated by FLAP can exacerbate symptoms in asthma by causing bronchial constriction. In cardiovascular diseases FLAP-related pathway dysregulation can contribute to atherosclerosis development. Proteins connected to FLAP through these disorders include leukotriene receptor antagonists which are therapeutic targets for reducing leukotriene-mediated effects.

Target data

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.
