Summary
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). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
