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 (PubMed:10377395, PubMed:10869354, PubMed:12244105, PubMed:12460774, PubMed:12672824, PubMed:18682561). Plays a key role in inflammation response, fever and pain (By similarity). Also catalyzes the oxidoreduction of endocannabinoids into prostaglandin glycerol esters and PGG2 into 15-hydroperoxy-PGE2 (PubMed:12244105, PubMed:12672824). In addition, displays low glutathione transferase and glutathione- dependent peroxidase activities, toward 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and 5-hydroperoxyicosatetraenoic acid (5-HPETE), respectively (PubMed:12672824). |
Cellular Location | Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Note=Colocalizes with PTGS1/COX-1 and PTGS2/COX-2 in the perinuclear compartment |
