About this structure (1,2)

PGHSs are bifunctional homodimers. Both COX-1 and COX-2 are membrane-bound enzymes and are present on the lumenal surfaces of the endoplasmic reticulum and of the inner and outer membranes of the nuclear envelope. However, recently, it has been demonstrated in cultured endothelial cells and fibroblasts that a fraction of COX-2 protein is localized to plasma membrane in caveolae-like structures (3). The primary structure of nascent COX-2 is of 604 amino acids and then it is processed into a mature form by removal of signal peptides giving a protein of 587 amino acids. PGHS-2 is variably glycosylated at two to four sites, leading to the formation of doublets or sometimes triplets on SDS-PAGE. Murine PGHS-2 peptide is presumed to be three times at Asn56, Asn130, and Asn396(NUEVA).
