Extra Details:: Cyclooxygenase 1 (COX1), also known as Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS1), is the key enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis. The gene was approximately 40kb long, with 11 protein-coding exons. There were 599aa residues with a calculated molecular mass of approximately 68kD. By analysis of a human/hamster somatic hybrid DNA panel, Funk et al. (1991) demonstrated that the PTGS1 gene maps to chromosome 9. Human prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase exhibited 91% aa identity with the sheep enzyme. Prostaglandin synthase 1 gene disruption in mice reduces arachidonic acid-induced inflammation and indomethacin-induced gastric ulceration. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot (Human, mouse, rat): 0.1-0.5ug/ml Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) (Human): 0.5-1ug/ml. Antigen retrieval using heat is recommended. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Stable for 12 months after receipt at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O.
