Chemical structure definitions are available for many Cayman products. See Chemical Structure Database for details.

Antigen: bovine amino acids 299-329 (LLKNPEALAAVRGELETVLLGAEQPISQMTT) · Host: rabbit · Application(s): WB and IP; other applications not tested · Prostaglandin I synthase (PGIS) catalyzes the isomerization of PGH2 to PGI2. PGI2 (prostacyclin) is a potent vasodilator and inhibitor of platelet aggregation. PGIS is a membrane-bound hemoprotein localized primarily in endothelial cells.1 The cloned bovine and human enzymes contain 500 amino acids and a calculated molecular mass of 56,629 and 57,103, respectively.2,3,4 Northern blot analysis reveals that the mRNA for PGIS is expressed in a wide variety of human tissues and is particularly abundant in ovary, heart, skeletal muscle, lung, and prostate.2
