PGD synthase

Cipollone, F., el at (2004). Balance between PGD synthase and PGE synthase is a major determinant of atherosclerotic plaque instability in humans. Arteriosclerosis Thrombosis Vase. Biot 24, 1259-65. [Pg.379]

PGD-synthases (also known as PGH/D isomerases) are a group of enzymes that catalyze the conversion of PGH2 to PGD2, a reaction that can also occur non-enzymatically under appropriate conditions (Fig. 4.8). [Pg.92]

Two distinct types of PGD-synthases have been identified. Y. Urade, T. Shimizu and O. Hayaishi have identified a glutathione-independent PGD-synthase in rat brain tissue, purified it and cloned its complementary This DNA encodes for a membrane-... [Pg.92]

A second PGD-synthase, dependent on glutathione for its activity, has been purified from rat spleen in the laboratory of D.H. Nugteren in Holland. The enzyme has a pH optimum between... [Pg.92]
