CoraLite®594-conjugated NOX4 Polyclonal antibody

NOX4 (NADPH oxidase 4) is a phagocyte-type oxidase, similar to that responsible for the production of large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in neutrophil granulocytes with resultant antimicrobial activity and it has been postulated to function in the kidney as an oxygen sensor that regulates the synthesis of erythropoietin in the renal cortex. Studies have reported molecular masses of Nox4 protein by western blot analysis ranging from 55 to 80 kDa. The truncated NOX4 splice variant D (28 kDa) lacks the majority of the transmembrane domain and has been shown to produce higher levels of ROS and DNA damage compared to its prototype. NOX4D has previously been shown to localise to the nucleus and nucleolus in various cell types and is implicated in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and DNA damage.
