Gene: Ptgs2 (prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2) Rattus norvegicus
Analyze
Symbol: Ptgs2
Name: prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2
RGD ID: 620349
Description: Enables oxidoreductase activity, acting on single donors with incorporation of molecular oxygen, incorporation of two atoms of oxygen. Involved in several processes, including learning or memory; modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; and positive regulation of cytokine production. Acts upstream of or within bone mineralization. Located in cytoplasm. Part of protein-containing complex. Colocalizes with caveola. Used to study several diseases, including Barrett's esophagus; brain disease (multiple); hypertension (multiple); lung disease (multiple); and neurodegenerative disease (multiple). Biomarker of several diseases, including carcinoma (multiple); glioblastoma (multiple); inflammatory bowel disease (multiple); pleurisy; and visual epilepsy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including arthritis (multiple); avian influenza; cardiovascular system disease (multiple); liver disease (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Orthologous to human PTGS2 (prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2); PARTICIPATES IN pro-inflammatory cytokine mediated pathway; acetylsalicylic acid pharmacodynamics pathway; antipyrine drug pathway; INTERACTS WITH (+)-pilocarpine; (-)-epigallocatechin 3-gallate; (1->4)-beta-D-glucan.
Type: protein-coding
RefSeq Status: VALIDATED
Previously known as: COX-2; Cox2; cyclooxygenase 2; cyclooxygenase-2; PGH synthase 2; PGHS-2; PHS II; prostaglandin G/H synthase 2; prostaglandin H2 synthase 2
