title: LOX-DB-- database on lipoxygenases.
abstract: CONCLUSIONS
  Lipoxygenases are a family of enzymes involved in a variety of human diseases like inflammation, asthma, artherosclerosis and cancer. The lipoxygenases database (LOX-DB) aims to be a web accessible compendium of information in particular on the mammalian members of this multigene family. This resource includes molecular structures, reference data, tools for structural and computational analysis as well as links to related information maintained by others. The data can be retrieved by the use of various search options and analyzed applying publicly available visualization tools.
