PTGR2 also known as Prostaglandin Reductase 2 is an enzyme with a molecular weight of approximately 37 kDa. The enzyme catalyzes the reduction of 15-keto prostaglandins into more inactive forms. PTGR2 is widely expressed in various tissues with higher levels observed in the liver and kidney. Its function involves balancing the levels of prostaglandins which are important lipid compounds in the human body.
Biological function summary

PTGR2 plays a significant role in modulating inflammatory responses and cellular processes by regulating prostaglandin metabolism. The enzyme does not function as part of a larger protein complex acting independently to convert active prostaglandins into their less active forms. By doing so PTGR2 indirectly influences inflammation and other cellular responses triggered by prostaglandins.

Pathways

This enzyme contributes significantly to prostaglandin metabolic pathways. PTGR2's activity impacts the cycle involving oxidative degradation of prostaglandins which in turns affect inflammation and immune system responses. It works alongside proteins such as PTGR1 and enzymes linked with arachidonic acid metabolism essential in prostaglandin biosynthesis and degradation pathways.

PTGR2 implicates itself in conditions related to inflammation and cancer. Increased activity of PTGR2 has been linked to the progression of certain cancers such as colorectal cancer due to its role in altering local concentrations of prostaglandins that influence tumor growth. PTGR2's regulation of prostaglandins also associates it with inflammatory diseases as abnormal prostaglandin levels can exacerbate these conditions. Connections with proteins like COX-2 emphasize its significance in these diseases as COX-2 plays a pivotal role in prostaglandin synthesis.

Target data

Functions as 15-oxo-prostaglandin 13-reductase and acts on 15-keto-PGE1, 15-keto-PGE2, 15-keto-PGE1-alpha and 15-keto-PGE2-alpha with highest activity towards 15-keto-PGE2 (PubMed : 19000823). Overexpression represses transcriptional activity of PPARG and inhibits adipocyte differentiation (By similarity).
