Assignment of the enantiomers was established by rearrangement of the earlier-eluting chiral column peak to 8S- HETE and 12R-HETE on exposure to 0.1% acetic acid. The rearrangement occurs with partial retention of the hydroxyl oxygen and is therefore assumed to be suprafacial, hence the assignment as 10S-HETE, cf. SI-ref. 2). This was confirmed by comparison with 10S-HETE prepared by total chemical synthesis (cf. SI-ref 2). 3

Following extraction and formation of the methyl esters using diazomethane, an aliquot was analyzed on a Thomson Instrument Co. Advantage C18 column (25 x 0.46 cm) using a solvent system of MeOH/H 2 O/HAc (80/20/0.01 by volume) and a flow rate of 1 ml/min.

Assignment of the 13- hydroxyl configura9on in 8S,13- dihete, product of 8S- HETE/cAOS/PhIO Chiral 13- HETE enan9omers were prepared by: (i) Vitamin E- controlled autoxida9on of arachidonate PFB ester, using 500% excess of vitamin E, and purifica9on of 13- HETE PFB ester. (ii) Resolu9on of 13- HETE enan9omers as the PFB esters using a Chiralpak AD column (solvent hexane/meoh, 100:2 v/v). (iii) Assignment of the 13R/13S configura9ons by mild acid (0.1% ace9c acid) treatment of the individual 13- HETE free acid enan9omers followed by purifica9on and chiral analysis of the 11- HETE and 15- HETE products (cf. SI- ref 2). Then standards of 8,13- dihete were prepared by: (iv) Reac9on of 13S- HETE with 8R- LOX to produce 8R,13S- dihete as standard. (v) Vitamin E- controlled autoxida9on of 13- HETE PFB ester followed by isola9on the two diastereomers of 8,13- dihete as standards: structures confirmed by GC- MS. (vi) Comparison of the caos/phio/8s- HETE- derived 8S,13- dihete with the 8R,13S- dihete and the pair of diastereomers (Fig. S7).

B Co- injec9on of 8S,13- dihete (from caos- PhIO- 8S- HETE incuba9on) with 8,13- dihete diastereomer standards Panel B: as shown by co-injection, the 8S-HETEderived 8,13-diHETE co-chromatographed with the second of the two diastereomeric standards. C Co- injec9on of 8R,13S- dihete with 8,13- dihete diastereomer standards Panel C: The standard of 8R,13S-diHETE also co-chromatographed with the second diastereomer. Co-chromatography of the caos/phio/8s- HETE product and the 8R,13S-diHETE standard indicates that the two are enantiomers. Thus, the 8S-HETE-derived 8,13- dihete is 8S,13R-diHETE.

Chiral analysis of 10- HETE, product of Arachidonic Acid with caos/phio 10- HETE was converted to the pentafluorobenzyl ester (PFB) and chromatographed on a Chiralpak AD column (25 x 0.46 cm) using a solvent of hexane/methanol (100:2, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 ml/ min, with UV detecson at 205 nm. The panel sizes below are adjusted to match retenson Smes on the x- axis. 10- HETE, enzyme product 10S, 83% 10R, 17% 10S Racemic Standard: 10RS- HETE PFB ester 10R The enantiomers of 10RS-HETE are well resolved by chiral HPLC as the PFB ester, (Supplemental Fig S9, above). Assignment of the enantiomers was established by rearrangement of the earliereluting chiral column peak to 8S-HETE and 12R-HETE, and the later peak to 8R-HETE and 12S- HETE, on exposure to 0.1% acetic acid. The rearrangement occurs with partial retention of the hydroxyl oxygen (SI ref 2) and is therefore assumed to be suprafacial, hence the assignment of the early eluting peak as 10S-HETE. The assignment using this method was confirmed by comparison to 10S-HETE prepared by total chemical synthesis (cf. SI ref 2). 9
