• Bioactivity:

  5 (R) -HETE is a rare lipoxygenase product of arachidonic acid. Nearly all plant and animal 5-LOs produce 5 (S) -HETE, but the presence of a 5 (R) -LO and the synthesis of 5 (R) -HpETE and 5 (R) -HETE have been confirmed in oocytes of the bivalve mollusk, S. solidissima. 5 (R) -HETE is more potent than the (S) -enantiomer as a chemotactic agent for human neutrophils.
