Instead of the dihydroperoxy intermediate being reduced, a lipoxygenase may mediate hydrogen abstraction from 7,17-dihydroperoxy-docosapentaenoic acid (7,17-diHp-DPAn-3) to form 7,8-epoxy, 17-hydroxydocosapentaenoic acid (7,8-epoxy,17-HDPAn-3) (Dalli et al. 2013). Although this is a proposed biosynthetic route for the formation of DPA-n-3 resolvins, it is assumed DPAn-3-derived SPMs follow a similar synthesis route to DHA- and EPA-derived SPMs and therefore, the lipoxygenase could be the dual-functional 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5).
