Biological background

Protein function (datasheet): 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. .

Scientific background (datasheet): 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.

Cellular localization (datasheet): Cytoplasm. Cell membrane. Translocation to membranes depends on NOXO1 or NCF1 and maybe RAC1.

Tissue details (datasheet): Widely expressed. Detected in pancreas, liver, kidney, spleen, prostate, small intestine and colon. .

Sequence similarities (datasheet): Belongs to the NCF2/NOXA1 family.

Research relevance and current trends

• Commonly studied in contexts related to Associated Proteins,Cardiovascular,Cell Biology,Hypoxia,Metabolism,Organelle Proteins,Oxidative Stress,Pathways and Processes,Protein Trafficking,Redox Metabolism,Signal Transduction.
• Supports comparative expression analysis across conditions, genotypes, or treatments when paired with appropriate controls.
• Useful for confirming target presence and subcellular distribution using orthogonal readouts (e.g., microscopy vs. immunoblotting).

Common research applications

• Western blot (WB): Compare relative target abundance and apparent size/isoforms across samples; interpret bands in light of expected MW and potential PTMs.
• ELISA: Measure target abundance in compatible matrices using a standard-curve readout; ensure dilution linearity and appropriate controls.
• Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Assess tissue distribution and cell-type patterns; interpret staining with appropriate negative controls and antigen context.
• Flow cytometry: Quantify target-positive populations in single-cell suspensions; pair with viability and isotype/FMO controls conceptually.

Notes for experimental interpretation

• Consider isoforms, post-translational modifications, and processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or localization.
• Cross-reactivity (datasheet): No cross-reactivity with other proteins
• Use appropriate positive and negative controls (e.g., KO/KD, blocking peptide, or isotype controls) to support specificity interpretation.

As a polyclonal antibody, this reagent may recognize multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may require careful specificity controls.
