title: Enantioselective formation of (R)-9-HPODE and (R)-9-HPOTrE in marine green alga Ulva conglobata.
abstract: When linoleic and linolenic acid were incubated with a crude enzyme of marine green alga Ulva conglobata, the corresponding (R)-9-hydroperoxy-(10E, 12Z)-10, 12-octadecadienoic acid [(R)-9-HPODE] and (R)-9-hydroperoxy-(10E, 12Z, 15Z)-10, 12, 15-octadecatrienoic acid [(R)-9-HPOTrE] were formed with a high enantiomeric excess (>99%), respectively.
