Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane-associated prostaglandin E synthase, which catalyzes the conversion of prostaglandin H2 to prostaglandin E2. This protein also has been shown to activate the transcription regulated by a gamma-interferon-activated transcription element (GATE). Multiple transcript variants have been found for this gene.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

Suppressed Reference Sequence(s)

The following Reference Sequences have been suppressed. Explain

  1. NM_198939.1: Suppressed sequence

    Description
    NM_198939.1: This RefSeq was permanently suppressed because it is a nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) candidate.
  2. NM_198940.1: Suppressed sequence

    Description
    NM_198940.1: This RefSeq was permanently suppressed because currently there is support for the transcript but not for the protein.
  3. NR_027812.1: Suppressed sequence

    Description
    NR_027812.1: This RefSeq was permanently suppressed because currently there is insufficient support for the transcript.
