Isolation and characterization of the complementary DNA for sheep seminal vesicle prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase (cyclooxygenase).
Open accessAbstract
An oligonucleotide probe was used to isolate a clone encoding prostaglandin endoperoxide synthetase (cyclooxygenase, EC 1.14.99.1) from a sheep seminal vesicle cDNA library. The protein predicted from nucleic acid sequence contains 599 amino acids including a 23-amino acid signal sequence. Thus, the mature cyclooxygenase deduced from the cDNA compares favorably in molecular size to the 70-kDa protein determined by gel electrophoresis. A putative transmembrane region and potential carbohydrate addition sites for N-linked sugars can be inferred from the amino acid sequence. Significantly, sequence similarities exist between cyclooxygenase, myeloperoxidase, and several other heme-containing proteins. The putative glycosylation sites, transmembrane domain, and sequence similarities with functionally related enzymes have been incorporated into a model for the topology of cyclooxygenase in the endoplasmic reticulum.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
