COX-1
May play an important role in regulating or promoting cell proliferation in some normal and neoplastically transformed cells. Homodimer. Belongs to the prostaglandin G/H synthase family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
