HO-2 polyclonal, anti-human, mouse, rat

Protein Family: Enzymes

Pathway and Disease: Energy Metabolism, Cofactor and Vitamin Metabolism

Description:
Heme oxygenase 2 (HO-2) cleaves the heme ring at the alpha methene bridge to form biliverdin. Biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. Under physiological conditions, the activity of HO-2 is highest in the spleen, where senescent erythrocytes are sequestrated and destroyed. HO-2 is implicated in the production of carbon monoxide in brain where it could act as a neurotransmitter.

Alternate Names: HO-2, Heme oxygenase 2, HMOX2, HO2
