A single band at around 72kDa is expected. One customer reported that when tested with three different human cell lines two strong bands are obtained, one between 40 - 50kDa and other other between 62 - 83kDa. It is possible that a degraded form of the enzyme is detected or the bands may correspond to different glycosylation states.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nForm-Liquid, Purification technique-Affinity purification Immunogen, Storage buffer-Preservative: 0.02% Sodium azide, Shipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-+4°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions--20°C, Aliquoting information-Upon delivery aliquot, Storage information-Avoid freeze \/ thaw cycle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nCyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) also known as COX1 cyclooxygenase-1 COX one and the COX1 protein is an important enzyme in the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. It is a heme-containing dimer enzyme with a molecular weight of approximately 70 kDa. COX-1 is widely expressed in most tissues and cell types where it plays a significant role in maintaining homeostatic functions. This protein is constitutively active meaning it is often active under normal physiological conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nCOX-1 is involved in producing prostaglandins that regulate a variety of normal physiological processes including gastric mucosal protection renal blood flow and platelet aggregation. Unlike COX-2 COX-1 is not induced by inflammatory stimuli and is not part of an inducible complex. It serves to maintain essential physiological functions in various organs and systems making its activity critical for cellular maintenance.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCOX-1 is primarily involved in the prostaglandin biosynthesis pathway. It converts arachidonic acid into prostaglandin H2 a precursor for other prostaglandins and thromboxanes. Thromboxane A2 produced from this pathway plays an important role in platelet aggregation and vasoconstriction linking COX-1's functions with hemostatic processes. Another protein involved in this pathway is thromboxane synthase which further processes the products of COX-1 activity.\u003cbr\u003e\nCOX-1’s role connects it closely to conditions like peptic ulcers and cardiovascular diseases. Inhibition of COX-1 by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can lead to gastric mucosal damage contributing to the development of peptic ulcers. Additionally due to its involvement in platelet aggregation COX-1 affects thrombotic diseases. COX-1's interactions with proteins such as COX-2 become relevant in inflammation and pain management where selective inhibition of COX-2 is sought to reduce adverse effects related to COX-1.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845018603689,"sku":"ab695","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab695","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
