-20°CCOX catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and prostacyclins: the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin H2. Recent discoveries of the induction of COX by a variety of stimuli such as phorbol esters, lipopolysaccharides, and cytokines led to the hypothosis that the inducible form of COX, COX-2, is responsible for the biosynthesis of prostaglandins under acute inflammatory conditions.1,2 COX-2 is a 72kD protein which has been cloned from a variety of species including human, mouse, rat, and sheep.
