Supplementary information

Thromboxane synthase also known as TBXAS1 is an enzyme that plays an important role in the biosynthesis of thromboxane A2 from prostaglandin H2. It is a 60 kDa protein primarily expressed in platelets and megakaryocytes as well as in cells within the lung kidney and spleen. By catalyzing the conversion of prostaglandin H2 to thromboxane A2 it influences the regulation of vasoconstriction and platelet aggregation.
Biological function summary

Thromboxane A2 generated by thromboxane synthase acts as a potent vasoconstrictor and promotes platelet aggregation important for hemostasis. This enzyme does not function as part of a larger complex but independently facilitates thromboxane A2 production. Its action significantly contributes to cardiovascular function where it modulates vascular tone and platelet activity.

Pathways

Thromboxane synthase is integral to the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway and the eicosanoid signaling pathway. The enzyme interacts closely with cyclooxygenase enzymes COX-1 and COX-2 in these pathways as they provide the prostaglandin H2 substrate for thromboxane A2 synthesis. By influencing these pathways thromboxane synthase indirectly affects inflammation and cardiovascular regulation.

The activity of thromboxane synthase is associated with cardiovascular diseases and disorders such as myocardial infarction and stroke. Overproduction of thromboxane A2 facilitated by this enzyme can lead to excessive platelet aggregation and vasoconstriction contributing to these conditions. Thromboxane synthase is also related to COX-2 which is implicated in inflammatory responses and is a target for anti-inflammatory drugs like aspirin and other COX inhibitors.

Target data

Catalyzes the conversion of prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) to thromboxane A2 (TXA2), a potent inducer of blood vessel constriction and platelet aggregation (PubMed : 11097184, PubMed : 11297515, PubMed : 22735388, PubMed : 24009185, PubMed : 8436233, PubMed : 9873013). Also cleaves PGH2 to 12-hydroxy-heptadecatrienoicacid (12-HHT) and malondialdehyde, which is known to act as a mediator of DNA damage. 12-HHT and malondialdehyde are formed stoichiometrically in the same amounts as TXA2 (PubMed : 11297515, PubMed : 22735388, PubMed : 9873013). Additionally, displays dehydratase activity, toward (15S)-hydroperoxy-(5Z,8Z,11Z,13E)-eicosatetraenoate (15(S)-HPETE) producing 15-KETE and 15-HETE (PubMed : 17459323).
