Description |
prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2a |
| Gene Summary |
Enables peroxidase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic liver development; exocrine pancreas development; and pronephros development. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and neuron projection. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; digestive system; gonad; head; and trigeminal placode. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Barrett's esophagus; arthritis (multiple); cardiovascular system disease (multiple); liver disease (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Orthologous to human PTGS2 (prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025] |
