Abstract
The invention provides sequence information of a microbial protein having lipoxy-genase activity and a method of producing the protein by recombinant DNA technology. More specifically, the inventors have isolated a gene encoding a lipoxygenase from-, cloned it into anstrain and sequenced it. A comparison shows less than 25% identity to known lipoxygenase sequences, the closest being human 15S li-poxygenase. The inventors have expressed the lipoxygenase recombinantly and found that the recombinant lipoxygenase is glycosylated.
