Function |
Catalyzes the hydroxylation of arachidonic acid, docosahexaenoic acid and other long chain fatty acids. May modulate the arachidonic acid signaling pathway and play a role in other fatty acid signaling processes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14660610}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14660610}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14660610}. Microsome membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14660610}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Widely expressed with stronger expression in thymus, heart and cerebellum. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14660610, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14975754, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15752708}.
