Secondary Information

Presence in other biological fluids/tissue/cells Mainly detected in heart,followed by lungs,muscle,kidney and testis.In endometrium, it is mainly expressed in luminal epithelial cells.
Protein Function involved in the pathway prostaglandin biosynthesis, which is part of Lipid metabolism.
Biochemical Properties This isomerase catalyzes the conversion of PGH2 into the more stable prostaglandin E2.The Vmax and Km values for PGH2 of the purified recombinant mPGE synthase are about 3.3 μmol/min · mg of protein and 28 μM, respectively.Activated by various SH-reducing reagents, i.e., dithiothreitol, glutathione (GSH), and β-mercaptoethanol, in order of decreasing effectiveness.
Significance in milk During the estrus cycle, it decreases from the beginning of the cycle until days 13-15 and then increase until ovulation.
