PTGES2 Recombinant Protein

Source : Escherichia Coli. PTGES2 produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 206 amino acids (1-186 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 23.5kDa.PTGES2 is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. PTGES2 is a membrane-associated prostaglandin E synthase, which catalyzes the conversion of prostaglandin H2 to prostaglandin E2. Additionally, PTGES2 activates the transcription regulated by a gamma-interferon-activated transcription element. PTGES2 is widely expressed- in the heart, including apex, inter-ventricular septum, both atria and ventricles, but not in the aorta. PTGES2 is also expressed in fetal heart. PTGES2 is detected in various regions of the brain: cerebellum; occipital, frontal and parietal lobes. It is also expressed in the lymph nodes, skeletal muscle, kidney and trachea, but not in the thymus or lung. PTGES2 is overexpressed in colorectal cancer.
