    text
  • apical membrane of thyrocytes
  • functional DUOX1 and DUOX2 localize to the leading edge of migrating cells, augmenting motility and wound healing (Luxen 2009)
  • basic FUNCTION
  • basic thyroid H202 generating system with DUOX2
  • involved in mucin induction
  • involved in innate airway host defense through enhanced production of H2O2 (Boots 2009)
  • both DUOX1 and DUOX2 play a critical role in the production of H2O2 in the thyroid gland, which is the limiting factor in thyroglobulin iodination and thyroxine synthesis
  • activation results in the activation of ERK1/2 and NF-KappaB pathways, ADAM17 activation, EGFR ligand shedding leading to amplified epithelial EGFR activation and IL-8 production (Boots 2009)
  • either has a unique function or must interact with other protein factors to express its catalytic activity (Meitzler 2009)
  • also involved in thyroid hormonogenesis (Rigutto 20009)
  • despite the high sequence similarity shared between DUOX1 and DUOX2, the two isoforms present distinct regulations, tissue expression and catalytic functions
  • plays an important role in innate airway epithelial responses to infection or injury
  • importance of DUOX1 in epithelial redox signaling through reversible S-glutathionylation of a range of proteins, including proteins involved in cytoskeletal regulation and MAPK signaling pathways involved in cell migration
  • DUOX1-dependent H2O2 production, which induces DNA double-strand breaks, can cause genomic instability and promote the generation of neoplastic cells through its mutagenic effect
  • changes of intracellular calcium concentration are transformed into redox signals through the calcium-dependent activation of DUOX1
  • DUOX1 and CYBB play Distinct roles in Redox regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor signaling
  • both DUOX enzymes (DUOX1, DUOX2) and their respective maturation factors DUOXA1 and DUOXA2 form a stable complex at the cell surface, which is fundamental for their enzymatic activity
  • is an H2O2-generating enzyme related to a wide range of biological features, such as hormone synthesis, host defense, cellular proliferation, and fertilization
  • thyroid hormone synthesis requires H2O2, produced by two NADPH oxidases, DUOX1 and DUOX2
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, differentiation
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • complex containing an iodide transporter, thyroperoxidase, and a peroxide generating system that includes DUOX1 and DUOX2
  • DUOX1 and DUOX2 constitute the major components of the thyroid H(2)O(2)-generating system required for thyroid hormone synthesis
  • DUOX1 dimerization is required for stability to achieve the correct structure or interaction with its maturation factor, DUOXA1
  • an intermolecular disulfide bridge rather than an intramolecular disulfide bridge is important for both the trafficking and H2O2-generating activity of the DUOX1-DUOXA1 complex
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule metal binding, other,
  • Ca2+
  • NAPD
  • Fe2+
  • protein
  • DUOXA1
  • TPO presents a catalase-like effect that protects DUOX1 and DUOX2 from inhibition by H2O2
  • novel role of IL4/IL13-induced DUOX1 expression in making a positive feedback loop for IL4/IL13 signaling in keratinocytes
  • direct interaction of DUOX1 and its DUOXA1 maturation factor occurs through contact of cysteine residue(s) in their extracellular domains
  • testosterone stimulates DUOX1 activity through GPRC6A in skin keratinocytes
  • PDGFA-induced migration of mesenchymal cells requires NOX4 and DUOX1/2 enzymes, which mediate redox-sensitive activation of PI3-kinase pathway and PKB/AKT1
  • autophagy regulates DUOX1 localization and superoxide production in airway epithelial cells during chronic IL13 stimulation
  • regulates primary B cell function under the influence of IL4 through BCR-mediated generation of hydrogen peroxide
