(5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z)-eicosapentaenoate + O2 = (5S)-hydroperoxy-(6E,8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z)-eicosapentaenoate
(5S)-hydroperoxy-(6E,8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z)-eicosapentaenoate + 2 glutathione = (5S)-hydroxy-(6E,8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z)-eicosapentaenoate + glutathione disulfide + H2O
(5S)-hydroperoxy-(6E,8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z)-eicosapentaenoate = leukotriene A5 + H2O
