| Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (fatty acid cyclooxygenase; PGH synthase; Cox-2) is a key enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis. The first rate-limiting step in the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins is catalyzed by Cox-1 and Cox-2. The cyclooxygenase activity of Cox-2 is inhibited by nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs such as aspirin and endomethacin. It is a mitogen-inducible gene (unlike Cox-1, which is a house-keeping gene), and this means it probably is a primary mediator of the inflammatory response. | | | Catalog # | C7904-83L | | Applications | Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry and Immunocytochemistry.
