** '''Lipoxygenases''' (optimal 45–55°C, pH 6.3–7.0) oxidizes fatty acids into fatty acids hydroperoxides.<ref name=esslinger/><ref name=golston/><ref name=mashing/> The function of lipoxygenase (LOX) during mashing is rather controversial. Lipoxygenase is suggested to be heat labile because only a minor part of the activity present in green malt survives kilning. However, this remaining part of LOX is known to be very stable towards heating. Almost 60% of the LOX activity of malt extract can survive for 1 h at a temperature of 67°C. LOX may survive temperatures as high as 95°C in spent grains. In addition, lipoxygenase purified from germinating barley has a pH optimum at 6.5.<ref name=poyri/>
