Background
Cyclooxygenase 1(COX1), also known as Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS1) or Mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1, is the key enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis. The gene is approximately 40 kb long, with 11 protein-coding exons. It is 599 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular mass of approximately 68 kD. By analysis of a human/hamster somatic hybrid DNA panel, it was demonstrated that the gene maps to chromosome 9. COX1 gene disruption in mice reduces arachidonic acid-induced inflammation and indomethacin-induced gastric ulceration.
