General annotation (Comments)

Function

Mediates the formation of prostaglandins from arachidonate. May have a role as a major mediator of inflammation and/or a role for prostanoid signaling in activity-dependent plasticity By similarity.

Catalytic activity

Arachidonate + AH2 + 2 O2 = prostaglandin H2 + A + H2O.

Cofactor

Binds 1 heme B (iron-protoporphyrin IX) group per subunit By similarity.

Pathway

Lipid metabolism; prostaglandin biosynthesis.

Subunit structure

Homodimer By similarity.

Subcellular location

Microsome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein.

Post-translational modification

S-nitrosylation by NOS2 (iNOS) activates enzyme activity. S-nitrosylation may take place on different Cys residues in addition to Cys-561 By similarity.

Miscellaneous

This enzyme acts both as a dioxygenase and as a peroxidase.

This enzyme is the target of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the prostaglandin G/H synthase family.

Contains 1 EGF-like domain.
