Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase, 12R type , also known as ALOX12B , 12R -LOX , and arachidonate lipoxygenase 3 , is a lipoxygenase -type enzyme composed of 701 amino acids and encoded by the ALOX12B gene .[ 5] [ 6] [ 7] The gene is located on chromosome 17 at position 13.1 where it forms a cluster with two other lipoxygenases, ALOXE3 and ALOX15B .[ 8] Among the human lipoxygenases, ALOX12B is most closely (54% identity) related in amino acid sequence to ALOXE3 [ 9]
