Recombinant Human PTGS1 Protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: PTGS1-012H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human PTGS1 protein (24-599) with a N-terminal His-tag was expressed in baculovirus system

Specification

• Description: This is one of two genes encoding similar enzymes that catalyze the conversion of arachinodate to prostaglandin. The encoded protein regulates angiogenesis in endothelial cells, and is inhibited by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin. Based on its ability to function as both a cyclooxygenase and as a peroxidase, the encoded protein has been identified as a moonlighting protein. The protein may promote cell proliferation during tumor progression. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
