Functional context (as provided): Converts arachidonate to prostaglandin H2 (PGH2), a committed step in prostanoid synthesis. Constitutively expressed in some tissues in physiological conditions, such as the endothelium, kidney and brain, and in pathological conditions, such as in cancer. PTGS2 is responsible for production of inflammatory prostaglandins. Up-regulation of PTGS2 is also associated with increased cell adhesion, phenotypic changes, resistance to apoptosis and tumor angiogenesis. In cancer cells, PTGS2 is a key step in the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), which plays important roles in modulating motility, proliferation and resistance to apoptosis. . Reported cellular localization context: Microsome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Tissue expression notes (as provided): Rod shaped photoreceptor cells which mediates vision in dim light.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eResearch context keywords from the source record include: Atherosclerosis,Cancer,Cancer Metabolism,Cardiovascular,Cholesterol Metabolism,Endocrine Metabolism,Heart Disease,Hormone Biosynthesis,Lipid and Lipoprotein Metabolism,Lipid Metabolism,Lipid Signaling,Lipids\/Lipoproteins,Metabolic Signaling Pathway,Metabolic Signaling Pathways,Metabolism,Pathways and Processes,Platelets,Signal Transduction,Signaling Pathway,Tumor Biomarkers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurrent studies often focus on connecting target abundance\/localization to pathway perturbations across models, tissues, and cell states.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantitative and multiplexed assays (e.g., imaging + immunoblot panels) are commonly used to compare phenotypes across conditions and time-courses.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWestern blotting (WB):\u003c\/strong\u003e assess relative target abundance across samples, treatments, or time-points.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmunohistochemistry (IHC):\u003c\/strong\u003e evaluate spatial distribution of target-positive staining in tissue architecture.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmunoprecipitation (IP):\u003c\/strong\u003e enrich target complexes for downstream immunoblot or interaction analyses.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorkflow ideas (metafield): Validate PTGS2 antibody specificity using KO\/KD control samples (WB\/IF\/IHC as appropriate), Detect PTGS2 expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Detect PTGS2 in FFPE tissue sections by immunohistochemistry, Enrich PTGS2 by immunoprecipitation from lysates for downstream analysis\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eConsider isoforms and post-translational modifications (PTMs) that may shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApparent molecular weight may vary by sample type and processing (observed MW: 46 kDa; calculated MW: 68996 MW).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO\/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eAdditional product details (from the source record)\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMolecular weight (observed):\u003c\/strong\u003e 46 kDa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCellular localization (provided):\u003c\/strong\u003e Microsome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein.
