- Background
- NOXA1 (NADPH oxidase activator 1), also called NOX ACTIVATOR 1 or p51-NOX, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NOXA1 gene. Hartz (2007) mapped the NOXA1 gene to chromosome 9q34.3 based on an alignment of the NOXA1 sequence with the genomic sequence (build 36.1) . Banfi et al. (2003) mapped the mouse Noxa1 gene to chromosome 2. Using yeast 2-hybrid assays, Takeya et al. (2003) showed that human p51-NOX interacted with constitutively active forms of RAC1 and RAC2. In vitro binding assays revealed that p51-NOX bound GTP-bound RAC1, but not GDP-bound RAC1. p51-NOX also bound p47-PHOX (NCF1) and p41-NOX (NOXO1), and trp436 within the SH3 domain of p51-NOX was required for these interactions. Human cell lines or COS-7 cells cotransfected with p51-NOX and p41-NOX and either gp91-PHOX (CYBB) or NOX1 produced superoxide. Cells individually transfected with NOX1, p41-NOX, or p51-NOX and cells transfected with only p41-NOX and p51-NOX showed no superoxide production.

- Function
- Functions as an activator of NOX1, a superoxide- producing NADPH oxidase. Functions in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which participate in a variety of biological processes including host defense, hormone biosynthesis, oxygen sensing and signal transduction. May also activate CYBB/gp91phox and NOX3. .
