PGHS-1 protein
PGHS-1 Standard, Native Ovine
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This is one of two genes encoding similar enzymes that catalyze the conversion of arachinodate to prostaglandin. The encoded protein regulates angiogenesis in endothelial cells, and is inhibited by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin. Based on its ability to function as both a cyclooxygenase and as a peroxidase, the encoded protein has been identified as a moonlighting protein. The protein may promote cell proliferation during tumor progression. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

Product Notes
The PGHS-1 ptgs1 (Catalog #AAA483007) is a Protein produced from Ovine seminal vesicles and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PGHS-1, Protein" 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.Precautions
