Delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase

Catalyzes an early step in the biosynthesis of tetrapyrroles. Binds two molecules of 5-aminolevulinate per subunit, each at a distinct site, and catalyzes their condensation to form porphobilinogen.

N-succinylamino acid racemase

Acts as a N-succinylamino acid racemase (NSAR) that catalyzes the racemization of N-succinyl-phenylglycine and N-succinyl-methionine (PubMed:14705949, PubMed:24955846). … Catalyzes both N-succinylamino acid racemization and OSB synthesis at equivalent rates (PubMed:14705949, PubMed:24955846). NSAR is probably the biological function of this enzyme (Probable).

Retinoic acid receptor RXR

Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 3

Seems to be coupled to the G(i)/G(o) and G(q) families of heteromeric G proteins … Receptor for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a mediator of diverse cellular activities. May play a role in the development of ovarian cancer.

Retinoic acid receptor RXR-beta

Retinoic acid receptors bind as heterodimers to their target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate gene expression in various biological processes … Receptor for retinoic acid.

Polyunsaturated fatty acid 5-lipoxygenase

It does not catalyze the oxygenation of linoleic acid and does not convert (5S)-HETE to lipoxin isomers (PubMed:31664810). … May also play a role in glucose homeostasis, regulation of insulin secretion and palmitic acid-induced insulin resistance via AMPK (By similarity).

Polyunsaturated fatty acid lipoxygenase ALOX15

In addition to its role in the immune and inflammatory responses, this enzyme may play a role in epithelial wound healing in the cornea through production of lipoxin A4 (LXA(4)) and docosahexaenoic acid-derived … Non-heme iron-containing dioxygenase that catalyzes the stereo-specific peroxidation of free and esterified polyunsaturated fatty acids generating a spectrum of bioactive lipid mediators (PubMed:17052953

Retinoic acid receptor RXR-alpha

Forms homo- or heterodimers with retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and binds to target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, to regulate gene expression in various … The RXRA/PPARA heterodimer is required for PPARA transcriptional activity on fatty acid oxidation genes such as ACOX1 and the P450 system genes (PubMed:10195690).

Retinoic acid receptor RXR-gamma

Retinoic acid receptors bind as heterodimers to their target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate gene expression in various biological processes … Receptor for retinoic acid.

Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein 1

Also binds synthetic drugs and influences their distribution and availability in the body. Appears to function in modulating the activity of the immune system during the acute-phase reaction
