ESTs virtually indentical to COX-1 and COX-2
May provide tissue localization information
Strong similarities with other genes indicate close relationship of COX family to another gene family - probably with a different function
ESTs similar, but not indentical to COX-1/-2

Is it highly similar to COX-1, COX-2 or both?
Is it only weakly similar?
If so, might it be more similar to something else, a putative COX-3?
