Notes: 9(S)-HpOTrE is a monohydroperoxy polyunsaturated fatty acid produced by the action of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) on α-linolenic acid.{2226} It can be further metabolized to colnelenic acid by a divinyl ether synthase activity found in garlic and potato microsomal fractions.{6086,3824} 9(S)-HpOTrE also serves as a substrate for further oxidation by both soybean and potato LOs, resulting in the formation of 9,16-dihydroperoxy acid.{6085,6087} The suicide inactivation of LOs when 9(S)-HpOTrE is used as a substrate is thought to occur via formation of an unstable epoxide.{6083,6084}
