COX-2 (ovine)

Stability : 1 year
Formulation : A solution in 80 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, containing 0.1% Tween 20 and 300 µM DDC
Description :
WB, IHC, and ICC · COX catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and prostacyclins: the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin H2. Recent discoveries of the induction of COX by a variety of stimuli such as phorbol esters, lipopolysaccharides, and cytokines led to the hypothosis that the inducible form of COX, COX-2, is responsible for the biosynthesis of prostaglandins under acute inflammatory conditions. COX-2 is a 72 kDa protein which has been cloned from a variety of species including human, mouse, rat, and sheep.
