Biochemical characterization of the cyclooxygenase enzyme in penaeid shrimp.

Biochemical characterization of the cyclooxygenase enzyme in penaeid shrimp.

Cyclooxygenase (COX) is a two-step enzyme that converts arachidonic acid into prostaglandin H2, a labile intermediate used in the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α). In vertebrates and corals, COX must be N-glycosylated on at least two asparagine residues in the N-(X...
