- Prostaglandin D2 synthase
Prostaglandin D2 synthase 21kDa (brain), also known as PTGDS, is a human
gene .cite web | title = Entrez Gene: PTGDS prostaglandin D2 synthase 21kDa (brain)| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=5730| accessdate = ]PBB_Summary
section_title =
summary_text = The protein encoded by this gene is a glutathione-independent prostaglandin D synthase that catalyzes the conversion ofprostaglandin H2 (PGH2) toprostaglandin D2 (PGD2). PGD2 functions as a neuromodulator as well as a trophic factor in the central nervous system. PGD2 is also involved in smooth muscle contraction/relaxation and is a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation. This gene is preferentially expressed in brain. Studies with transgenic mice overexpressing this gene suggest that this gene may be also involved in the regulation of non-rapid eye movement sleep.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: PTGDS prostaglandin D2 synthase 21kDa (brain)| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=5730| accessdate = ]References
