Description: NOX2 (NADPH Oxidase 2), also called CYBB (Cytochrome b(-245), beta subunit), p91-PHOX or GP91-1, is a human gene encoding a glycoprotein. NOX2 is an essential component of phagocytic NADPH-oxidase, a membrane-bound enzyme complex that generates large quantities of microbicidal superoxide and other oxidants upon activation. It is mapped on Xp11.4. NOX2 assembled on DC phagosomes in a gp91-phox subunit-dependent manner, and that reactive oxygen species were produced in a more sustained manner in immature DC phagosomes than in macrophage phagosomes. As a major player in innate immune responses in neutrophils, NOX2 is also involved in adaptive immunity through its activity in DCs. In heart cells, physiologic stretch rapidly activates reduced-form NOX2 to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) in a process dependent on microtubules (X-ROS signaling).
Immunogen: A recombinant human partial protein corresponding to amino acids F416-D500 was used as the immunogen for the gp91phox antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the gp91phox antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
