Abstract
In barley grains, lipoxygenase has been well characterized and two isoenzymes have been purified [1–3] but the characterization of hydroperoxide-metabolizing enzymes has received less attention. Hydroperoxide-consuming enzymes can be divided into two types of enzymes. Hydroperoxide lyase cleaves fatty acid hydroperoxides into aldehydes and oxoacids, and hydroperoxide dehydrase (also named hydroperoxide isomerase) catalyzes the formation of α- and γ-ketols.
