Ptgr1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables 15-oxoprostaglandin 13-oxidase [NAD(P)+] activity and 2-alkenal reductase (NADPH) activity. Involved in several processes, including leukotriene B4 metabolic process; negative regulation of reactive oxygen species biosynthetic process; and response to antineoplastic agent. Located in cytosol and nucleus. Biomarker of hypertension. Orthologous to human PTGR1 (prostaglandin reductase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Ptgr1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
