NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. However, this protein is considered a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily on the basis of sequence similarity rather than functional similarity. This endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein catalyzes the conversion of prostglandin H2 to prostacyclin (prostaglandin I2), a potent vasodilator and inhibitor of platelet aggregation. An imbalance of prostacyclin and its physiological antagonist thromboxane A2 contribute to the development of myocardial infarction, stroke, and atherosclerosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Product Notes

The PTGIS ptgis (Catalog #AAA480012) is an Antibody and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Prostacyclin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunoassay, Immunoprecipitation (IP), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Immunoassay (titre from 1/10) Immunoprecipitate PGI synthase activity(1/2 dilution) Immunohistochemical localization of PGI2 Synthase (undiluted). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PTGIS ptgis for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Prostacyclin, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
