Cyclooxygenase, officially known as prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase, is an enzyme that is responsible for biosynthesis of prostanoids, including thromboxane and prostaglandins such as prostacyclin, from arachidonic acid. Wikipedia
An enzyme Wikipedia Disambiguation
Class of enzymes Wikidata
Any of several enzymes that catalyze a cyclooxygenation reaction, but especially the conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandins; their inhibition is the mode of action of aspirin and ibuprofen. Wiktionary
