Anti-DUOX1 antibody produced in rabbit

The gene DUOX1 (dual oxidase 1) encodes a protein belonging to the family of NADPH oxidase/heme peroxidase proteins, Duox, and shares upto 85% amino acid similarity with another Duox isoform, Duox2. It contains an NAD(P)H oxidase domain and a heme peroxidase domain. The NAD(P)H oxidase domain of this protein is involved in H₂O₂ production and the heme peroxidase domain is similar to several peroxidases, but its function is yet to be characterized. The expression of Duox1 is stimulated by Th2 (T helper) cytokines, IL-4 (interleukin-4) and IL-13 (interleukin-13). The gene is mapped to human chromosome 15q15.3.

Recombinant fragment corresponding to a region within amino acids 257 and 566 of DUOX1 according to AAI14939

Suggested starting dilutions are as follows: IHC-P: 1:100-1:1000, WB: 1:500-1:3000. Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal working dilutions should be determined experimentally by the end user.

The gene DUOX1 (dual oxidase 1) encodes a dual function NAD(P)H oxidase/peroxidase that serves as an important source for the production of hydrogen peroxide in respiratory tract epithelium. H₂O₂, thus produced, is involved in the regulation of cellular signaling pathways that participate in the production of inflammatory effectors. ATP-mediated activation of duox1 causes activation of ERK1/2 (extracellular signal-regulated kinase ½) and NFκ-B (nuclear factor κ-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells) pathways. Duox1 is also involved in the regulation of pathways associated with production of various mucins, matrix metalloproteinase-9, and other inflammatory mediators, in response to environmental or bacterial stimuli.
