Disease relevance of Propadienylidene

Allene oxides are a very unusual type of epoxide that, in biological systems, are formed by the enzymic dehydration of fatty acid hydroperoxides (lipoxygenase products) [1].

High impact information on Propadienylidene

Allene oxides are unstable epoxides that have been implicated as intermediates in the biotransformation of hydroperoxyicosatetraenoic acids and related hydroperoxides to ketols and cyclopentenones [3].
On the Relationship of Coral Allene Oxide Synthase to Catalase: A SINGLE ACTIVE SITE MUTATION THAT INDUCES CATALASE ACTIVITY IN CORAL ALLENE OXIDE SYNTHASE [4].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Propadienylidene

Allene oxide cyclase was present in the soluble fraction of corn homogenate and had a molecular weight of about 45,000 as judged by gel filtration [6].
