This gene encodes a member of the MAPEG (Membrane Associated Proteins in Eicosanoid and Glutathione metabolism) protein family. Members of this family are involved in the production of leukotrienes and prostaglandin E, important mediators of inflammation.
miRNAmiRNA information provided by mirtarbase database.
Gene ontology (GO)Gene Ontology (GO) annotations describing the biological processes, molecular functions, and cellular components associated with a gene.
Displays both glutathione S-transferase and glutathione peroxidase activities toward oxyeicosanoids, as part of cellular detoxification as well as synthesis of bioactive metabolites (PubMed:36370807, PubMed:9278457). Catalyzes conjugate addition
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Predominantly expressed in heart, skeletal muscle, and adrenal cortex. Also found in brain, placenta, liver, kidney, pancreas, thyroid, testis and ovary. Almost absent in lung, thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes. Expressed in mast
