but not in muscle (PubMed: 17908561)

Directly binds Holliday junctions

Hydrolyzes the ester bond of the fatty acyl group attached at sn-2 position of phospholipids (phospholipase A2 activity) with preference for phosphatidylethanolamines and phosphatidylglycerols over phosphatidylcholines (PubMed: 3356705)

These enzymes hydrolyze a variety of dipeptides| including leukotriene D4| the beta-lactam ring of some antibiotics| and cystinyl-bis-glycine (cys-bis-gly) formed during glutathione degradation (Habib et al

and CSF2 form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 5q

Human Beta, Beta-Carotene 9', 10'-Oxygenase, BCO2 ELISA Kit, 96T Vortex Mixer but not in muscle (PubMed:Asymmetrically cleaves beta carotene at the 9',10' double bond resulting in the formation of beta apo 10' carotenal and beta ionone. Besides beta carotene, lycopene is also oxidatively cleaved. The apocarotenals formed by this enzyme may be the precursors for the biosynthesis of retinoic acid or exert unknown physiological effects.
