Function

Non-heme iron-containing lipoxygenase which is atypical in that it displays a prominent hydroperoxide isomerase activity and a reduced lipoxygenases activity (PubMed:12881489, PubMed:17045234, PubMed:20921226, PubMed:20923767). The hydroperoxide isomerase activity catalyzes the isomerization of hydroperoxides, derived from arachidonic and linoleic acid by ALOX12B, into hepoxilin-type epoxyalcohols and ketones (PubMed:12881489, PubMed:17045234, PubMed:20923767). In presence of oxygen, oxygenates polyunsaturated fatty acids, including arachidonic acid, to produce fatty acid hydroperoxides (PubMed:20921226). In the skin, acts downstream of ALOX12B on the linoleate moiety of esterified omega-hydroxyacyl-sphingosine (EOS) ceramides to produce an epoxy-ketone derivative, a crucial step in the conjugation of omega-hydroxyceramide to membrane proteins (PubMed:21558561). Therefore plays a crucial role in the synthesis of corneocytes lipid envelope and the establishment of the skin barrier to water loss (PubMed:21558561). In parallel, it may have a signaling function in barrier formation through the production of hepoxilins metabolites (PubMed:21558561). Plays also a role in adipocyte differentiation through hepoxilin A3 and hepoxilin B3 production which in turn activate PPARG (By similarity). Through the production of hepoxilins in the spinal cord, it may regulate inflammatory tactile allodynia (By similarity).

Activity summary

The e-LOX-3 also known as Epidermis-type Lipoxygenase 3 is an enzyme that plays a role in the lipoxygenase family. It has an estimated mass of approximately 75 kDa. Researchers find e-LOX-3 expressed in human skin playing a role in the epidermal layer. This enzyme participates in the process of oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. It influences the formation of certain signaling molecules and lipid peroxidation products in the body.

Biological function summary

Mutations affecting e-LOX-3 disrupt important epidermal barrier functions. e-LOX-3 acts as a component of the complex lipoxygenase pathway involved in metabolizing fatty acids into oxygenated products. This pathway is important for maintaining skin health and homeostasis by contributing to the development and maintenance of the epidermal lipid barrier. e-LOX-3 helps create metabolites that act as signaling molecules in skin differentiation and function.

Pathways

E-LOX-3 is an important element in the arachidonic acid pathway and the related lipoxygenase pathway. Lipoxygenase enzymes such as 12-LOX and 15-LOX interact with e-LOX-3 in producing bioactive lipids essential for skin health. The enzyme plays a role in converting polyunsaturated fatty acids into hydroxy fatty acids or hydroperoxy derivatives which serve critical functions in inflammation and repair processes within the skin.

Associated diseases and disorders

Alterations in e-LOX-3 function link to ichthyosis and psoriasis. e-LOX-3 mutations can cause non-bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (NCIE) characterized by scaly skin due to disrupted lipid metabolism. Its activity impacts other proteins like transglutaminase 1 which is critical in maintaining skin barrier function. Understanding the role of e-LOX-3 in skin conditions provides potential therapeutic targets for treatment strategies.
