ENZYME

ENZYME entry: EC 1.6.3.1

Accepted Name
NAD(P)H oxidase (H2O2-forming)
Alternative Name(s)
dual oxidase
NAD(P)H oxidase
ThOX
THOX2
thyroid NADPH oxidase
thyroid oxidase
thyroid oxidase 2
Reaction catalysed
  • H(+) + NADPH + O2 <=> H2O2 + NADP(+)
  • H(+) + NADH + O2 <=> H2O2 + NAD(+)
Comment(s)
  • When calcium is present, this transmembrane glycoprotein generates H2O2 by transfering electrons from intracellular NAD(P)H to extracellular molecular oxygen.
  • The electron bridge within the enzyme contains one molecule of FAD and probably two heme groups.
  • This flavoprotein is expressed at the apical membrane of thyrocytes, and provides H2O2 for the thyroid peroxidase-catalyzed biosynthesis of thyroid hormones.
