About Ptgis

Summary

Enables prostaglandin-I synthase activity. Involved in prostaglandin biosynthetic process and response to hypoxia. Located in extracellular space. Used to study brain ischemia and pulmonary hypertension. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in essential hypertension and hypertension. Orthologous to human PTGIS (prostaglandin I2 synthase).
