Protein Information
Name	PTGES2
Synonyms	C9orf15, PGES2
Function	Isomerase that catalyzes the conversion of PGH2 into the more stable prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) (in vitro) (PubMed:12804604, PubMed:17585783, PubMed:18198127). The biological function and the GSH- dependent property of PTGES2 is still under debate (PubMed:17585783, PubMed:18198127). In vivo, PTGES2 could form a complex with GSH and heme and would not participate in PGE2 synthesis but would catalyze the degradation of prostaglandin E2 H2 (PGH2) to 12(S)-hydroxy- 5(Z),8(E),10(E)-heptadecatrienoic acid (HHT) and malondialdehyde (MDA) (By similarity) (PubMed:17585783).
Cellular Location	Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass membrane protein
Tissue Location	Widely expressed. Expressed in the heart, including apex, inter-ventricular septum, both atria and ventricles, but not in the aorta. Also expressed in fetal heart. Detected in various regions of the brain: cerebellum; occipital, frontal and parietal lobes. Also expressed in the lymph nodes, skeletal muscle, kidney and trachea, but not in the thymus or lung. Overexpressed in colorectal cancer
