ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane-associated prostaglandin E synthase, which catalyzes the conversion of prostaglandin H2 to prostaglandin E2. This protein also has been shown to activate the transcription regulated by a gamma-interferon-activated transcription element (GATE). Multiple transcript variants have been found for this gene.

uniprot summary :
PTGES2: Isomerase that catalyzes the conversion of unstable intermediate of prostaglandin E2 H2 (PGH2) into the more stable prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) form. May also have transactivation activity toward IFN-gamma (IFNG), possibly via an interaction with CEBPB; however, the relevance of transcription activation activity remains unclear. Belongs to the GST superfamily. Protein type: Isomerase; EC 5.3.99.3; Lipid Metabolism - arachidonic acid; Membrane protein, integral. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 9q34.11. Cellular Component: Golgi membrane; mitochondrion; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; integral to membrane; cytosol; nucleus. Molecular Function: DNA binding; glutathione binding; electron carrier activity; lyase activity; heme binding; protein disulfide oxidoreductase activity; prostaglandin-E synthase activity. Biological Process: secretion; cell redox homeostasis; positive regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent; prostaglandin biosynthetic process
