The effects of oxygen on production of pentane and compounds absorbing at 234 nm and 285 nm by soybean lipoxygenase isozymes I and II were examined in a model system. Aerobic conditions increased pentane production. Differences in dienone formation (A 285 ) and diene conjugation (A 234 ) indicate the reaction sequences of the 2 isozymes are not the same.
