Description/Background | The NADPH oxidase is a multicomponent enzyme that transfers electrons from NADPH to O2 to generate superoxide (O2-), a key part of the phagocytic or neutrophilic respiratory burst response. Flavocytochrome b558 is the catalytic component of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase. It is a transmembrane heterodimer composed of a large glycoprotein, gp91phox (PHagocyte OXidase) and a smaller protein, p22phox. Upon cell stimulation, flavocytochrome b558 assembles with p67phox, p47phox, and the GTP-binding protein Rac and becomes activated to generate O2-. Mutations in gp91phox, p22phox, or other components of the NADPH oxidase can result in chronic granulomatous disease, which is associated with significant morbidity and mortality due to a predisposition to recurrent bacterial and fungal infections. |
Storage Temperature | This antibody solution is stable for one year from the date of purchase when stored at -20°C. |
Protocols | FCM |
Clone Number | 7D5 |
Concentration | 1 mg/mL |
Source | This antibody was purified from hybridoma (clone 7D5) supernatant using protein A agarose. This hybridoma was established by fusion of mouse myeloma cell Sp2/0 with Balb/c mouse splenocyte immunized with the human cytochrome b rich fraction. |
