Gene name

DUOX2 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

LNOX2, P138(TOX), P138-TOX, THOX2

Description

Dual oxidase 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a glycoprotein and a member of the NADPH oxidase family. The synthesis of thyroid hormone is catalyzed by a protein complex located at the apical membrane of thyroid follicular cells. This complex contains an iodide transporter, thyroperoxidase, and a peroxide generating system that includes this encoded protein and DUOX1. This protein is known as dual oxidase because it has both a peroxidase homology domain and a gp91phox domain. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
