- Description
- Enables peroxidase activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to organic cyclic compound. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and neuron projection. Is expressed in several structures, including female organism; gonad; kidney; male organism; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Barrett's esophagus; artery disease (multiple); arthritis (multiple); liver disease (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Orthologous to human PTGS2 (prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2).
