Entrez Gene summary for PTGS2 Gene:

Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS), also known as cyclooxygenase, is the key enzyme in prostaglandin

biosynthesis, and acts both as a dioxygenase and as a peroxidase. There are two isozymes of PTGS: a constitutive

PTGS1 and an inducible PTGS2, which differ in their regulation of expression and tissue distribution. This gene

encodes the inducible isozyme. It is regulated by specific stimulatory events, suggesting that it is responsible

for the prostanoid biosynthesis involved in inflammation and mitogenesis. (provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009)

GeneCards Summary for PTGS2 Gene:

PTGS2 (prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (prostaglandin G/H synthase and cyclooxygenase)) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with PTGS2 include bile duct cysts, and protoplasmic astrocytoma. GO annotations related to this gene include protein homodimerization activity and heme binding. An important paralog of this gene is PTGS1.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PGH2_HUMAN, P35354

Function: Critical component of colonic mucosal wound repair (By similarity). Mediates the formation of

prostaglandins from arachidonate. May have a role as a major mediator of inflammation and/or a role for

prostanoid signaling in activity-dependent plasticity

summary for PTGS2 Gene:

Cyclooxygenase (also known as COX, Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase, Prostaglandin G/H synthase) is

expressed in cells in three isoforms: COX-1, COX-2 and COX-3. COX-1 (constitutive) and COX-2 (inducible)

isoforms catalyze the rate-limiting step of prostaglandin production and are the targets of non-steroidal

anti-inflammatory drugs. COX-3 does not appear to be involved in inflammatory processes, but seems to be

involved in pain and fever. COX-3 is thought to be derived through the retention of the highly structured G

+ C-rich intron 1 of the COX-1 gene.
