COX-1 is made up of 576 amino acids and COX-2 is made up of 581 amino acids. (Rouzer) The sequences match with 60% identical amino acids. (Rouzer) The structures of these isozymes are nearly superimposable with three domains each. The <scene name='80/800650/Membrane_bound_domain/1'>membrane binding domain</scene> made up of residues 73-116, goes through half of the lipid bilayer. (Picot) These residues are hydrophobic because they are in a hydrophobic environment with the fatty acid tails of the lipids surrounding this domain. Residues 117-587 make up the <scene name='80/800650/Catalytic_domain/1'>catalytic domain</scene>. (Picot) The catalytic domain has two catalytic active sites for each of the catalytic activities of cyclooxygenase and peroxidase. | COX-1 is made up of 576 amino acids and COX-2 is made up of 581 amino acids.
