Catalytic activities of haemoglobin related to lipid peroxidation.
The catalytic activities of haemoglobin and other haemoproteins related to lipid peroxidation, especially the haemin-catalyzed lipid peroxidation, the quasi-lipoxygenase activity and the hydroperoxidase activity are briefly reviewed. Important characteristics of these actions are compared. The reaction products of the quasi-lipoxygenase activity are reported.
