ENZYME entry: EC 3.3.2.10

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/3.3.2.10
Accepted Name
soluble epoxide hydrolase
Alternative Name(s)
arene-oxide hydratase
aryl epoxide hydrase
cytosolic epoxide hydrolase
epoxide hydrase
epoxide hydratase
trans-stilbene oxide hydrolase
Reaction catalysed
an epoxide + H2O = an ethanediol
Comment(s)
  • Catalyzes the hydrolysis of trans-substituted epoxides, such as trans-stilbene oxide, as well as various aliphatic epoxides derived from fatty-acid metabolism.
  • It is involved in the metabolism of arachidonic epoxides (epoxyeicosatrienoic acids; EETs) and linoleic acid epoxides.
  • The enzyme from mammals is a bifunctional enzyme: the C-terminal domain exhibits epoxide-hydrolase activity and the N-terminal domain has the activity of EC 3.1.3.76.
  • Like EC 3.3.2.9, it is probable that the reaction involves the formation of an hydroxyalkyl-enzyme intermediate.
  • The enzyme can also use leukotriene A4, the substrate of EC 3.3.2.6, but it forms 5,6-dihydroxy-7,9,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid rather than leukotriene B4 as the product.
  • Formerly EC 3.3.2.3, EC 4.2.1.63 and EC 4.2.1.64.
