Protein: Prostaglandin E synthase (mPGES-1) (EC 5.3.99.3) (Glutathione peroxidase PTGES) (EC 1.11.1.-) (Glutathione transferase PTGES) (EC 2.5.1.18) (Microsomal prostaglandin E synthase 1) (Q9JM51)
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse)
Function: Terminal enzyme of the cyclooxygenase (COX)-2-mediated prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) biosynthetic pathway. Catalyzes the glutathione-dependent oxidoreduction of prostaglandin endoperoxide H2 (PGH2) to prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in response to inflammatory stimuli. Plays a key role in inflammation response, fever and pain. Catalyzes also the oxidoreduction of endocannabinoids into prostaglandin glycerol esters and PGG2 into 15-hydroperoxy-PGE2. In addition, displays low glutathione transferase and glutathione-dependent peroxidase activities, toward 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and 5-hydroperoxyicosatetraenoic acid (5-HPETE), respectively (By similarity).
