Protein Name:
Prostaglandin E synthase 2
|
UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q9H7Z7 (Q9H7Z7)
Gene Name:
PTGES2
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human)
Function: Isomerase that catalyzes the conversion of PGH2 into the more stable prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) (in vitro) (PubMed:12804604, PubMed:17585783, PubMed:18198127). The biological function and the GSH-dependent property of PTGES2 is still under debate (PubMed:17585783, PubMed:18198127). In vivo, PTGES2 could form a complex with GSH and heme and would not participate in PGE2 synthesis but would catalyze the degradation of prostaglandin E2 H2 (PGH2) to 12(S)-hydroxy-5(Z),8(E),10(E)-heptadecatrienoic acid (HHT) and malondialdehyde (MDA) (By similarity) (PubMed:17585783)
