1 A proline-centered pentapeptide isoconformational to arachidonic acid, which exhibited appreciable selectivity for COX-2, overcoming acetic acid- and formalin-induced pain in rats to almost 80%, was treated as a substrate by the enzyme. Arachidonic Acid cytochrome c oxidase II, mitochondrial Rattus norvegicus
2 The kinetic parameter Kcat/Km for COX-2-mediated metabolism of the peptide (6.3 x 105 M-1 s-1) was quite similar to 9.5 x 105 M-1 s-1 for arachidonic acid. Arachidonic Acid cytochrome c oxidase II, mitochondrial Rattus norvegicus
