A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of LTB4DH antibody, catalog no. 70R-4227 Background: LTB4DH functions as 15-oxo-prostaglandin 13-reductase and acts on 15-oxo-PGE1, 15-oxo-PGE2 and 15-oxo-PGE2-alpha. It has no activity towards PGE1, PGE2 and PGE2-alpha. LTB4DH catalyzes the conversion of leukotriene B4 into its biologically less active metabolite, 12-oxo-leukotriene B4. This is an initial and key step of metabolic inactivation of leukotriene B4.
