Gene

PTGIS

Species
Homo sapiens
Symbol
PTGIS
Name
prostaglandin I2 synthase
Synonyms
  • CYP8
  • CYP8A1
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables heme binding activity and prostaglandin-I synthase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to cytokine stimulus; negative regulation of nitric oxide biosynthetic process; and positive regulation of execution phase of apoptosis. Located in caveola; endoplasmic reticulum; and nucleus. Implicated in several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); cerebrovascular disease (multiple); colorectal adenoma; limb ischemia; and primary pulmonary hypertension. Biomarker of atherosclerosis; oral squamous cell carcinoma; pulmonary hypertension; and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
RGD Description
This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. However, this protein is considered a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily on the basis of sequence similarity rather than functional similarity. This endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein catalyzes the conversion of prostglandin H2 to prostacyclin (prostaglandin I2), a potent vasodilator and inhibitor of platelet aggregation. An imbalance of prostacyclin and its physiological antagonist thromboxane A2 contribute to the development of myocardial infarction, stroke, and atherosclerosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
