Rabbit Anti-NOXA2/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
This gene encodes neutrophil cytosolic factor 2, the67-kilodalton cytosolic subunit of the multi-protein NADPH oxidase complex found in neutrophils. This oxidase produces a burst of superoxide which is delivered to the lumen of the neutrophil phagosome. Mutations in this gene, as well as in other NADPH oxidase subunits, can result in chronic granulomatous disease, a disease that causes recurrent infections by catalase-positive organisms. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq].
Function:
NCF2, NCF1, and a membrane bound cytochrome b558 are required for activation of the latent NADPH oxidase (necessary for superoxide production).
Subunit:
Component of an NADPH oxidase complex composed of a heterodimer formed by the membrane proteins CYBA and CYBB and the cytosolic subunits NCF1, NCF2 and NCF4. Interacts with NCF4. Interacts (via the SLCterminal SH3 domain) with NCF1 (via SLCterminus). Interacts with SYTL1 and RAC1. May interact with NOXO1. Interacts with S100A8 and calprotectin (S100A8/9).
Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm.
DISEASE:
Granulomatous disease, chronic, cytochrome-b-positive 2, autosomal recessive (CGD2) [MIM:233710]: A disorder characterized by the inability of neutrophils and phagocytes to kill microbes that they have ingested. Patients suffer from life-threatening bacterial/fungal infections.
Similarity:
Belongs to the NCF2/NOXA1 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Contains 1 PB1 domain.
Contains 2 SH3 domains.
Contains 3 TPR repeats.
