Target Background

Function(From Uniprot)
Isomerase that catalyzes the conversion of PGH2 into the more stable prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) (in vitro). The biological function and the GSH-dependent property of PTGES2 is still under debate. 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).
Gene References into Functions
  1. Four single nucleotide polymorphisms in two genes in the PGE2 family, PTGES2 and PTGER4, were significantly associated with primary graft dysfunction after lung transplantation. PMID:24467603
  2. high immunoreactivity of mPGES-2 in pyramidal neurons of AD brains indicates that it might have a potential role in the functional replacement of cytosolic PGES or inactive mPGES-1 in later stages of Alzheimer disease PMID:19664621
  3. Up-regulation of prostaglandin E2 synthesis by interleukin-1beta in human orbital fibroblasts involves coordinate induction of prostaglandin-endoperoxide H synthase-2 and glutathione-dependent prostaglandin E2 synthase expression PMID:11847219
  4. role in regulating interferon-gamma-dependent gene expression PMID:12050152
  5. 110Cys is essential in the active site of membrane-associated prostaglandin E synthase-2 PMID:12804604
  6. Transactivators GBF1 and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-beta physically interact to induce interferon-gamma-regulated transcription; a 37-aa long peptide derived from the GBF1 protein can associate with C/EBP-beta in an IFN-inducible manner. PMID:15879117
  7. alphaTOS inhibits COX activity, thereby inhibiting PGE2 production in human lung epithelial cells PMID:16714329
  8. study obtained evidence from two Caucasian study populations that the His298-allele of PTGES2 Arg298His confers to reduced risk of type 2 diabetes PMID:17566096
  9. Carbonyl reductase-1 (CBR1), microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 and 2 (mPGES-1, mPGES-2), cytosolic prostaglandin E synthase (cPGES), aldoketoreductase (AKR1C1) and prostaglandin F synthase (AKR1C3) were all expressed in hair follicles. PMID:17697149
  10. risk-reducing effects of the minor His allele of the prostaglandin E synthase 2 (PTGES2) Arg298His polymorphism could be mediated partly by lowered body mass index (BMI) PMID:17979097
  11. all three terminal prostaglandin synthases, mPGES-1, mPGES-2, and cPGES, are over-expressed in human gliomas PMID:19347995
  12. A marginal but significant influence of the PTGES2 298H single nucleotide polymorphism on BMI was found in a large population-based study. PMID:19371221
  13. These results indicate that mPGES-1 and mPGES-2 may each play a role in colorectal cancer progression. PMID:19412621
