The layout of this reaction may differ from that in the pathway view due to the constraints in pathway layout
While closely similar, PTGS1 and 2 differ sufficiently in the structures of their active sites so that the latter enzyme selectively binds and is inhibited by PTGS2 inhibitors (benzquinamide, carprofen, celecoxib, etodolac, etoricoxib, lumiracoxib, rofecoxib, valdecoxib) (Luong et al. 1996; Smith et al. 2000; Dong et al. 2011).
