Abstract
Rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 catalyzes the NADPH dependent metabolism of arachidonic acid to six regioisomeric cis,trans-dienols. The 12(R)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid is generated with a high degree of enantioselectivity while the remaining regioisomers are produced as nearly racemic mixtures.
