ABSTRACT
The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) binding site of the NADPH oxidase complex is believed to be located on the beta, subunit of cytochrome b558. However, our previous studies showed that p67PHOX also contains an NADPH binding site that is essential for normal oxidase activity and that p67PHOX is able to mediate a slow electron transfer from a reduced pyridine nucleotide to an artificial electron acceptor. Using both affinity labeling and fluorescence quenching, we have obtained further evidence that p67PHOX is able to bind NADPH. We have used a number of truncated forms of p67PHOX, including p67PHOX(1-243), p67PHOX(1-210), p67PHOX(1-199), and p67PHOX(244-526) (where the numbers represent the initial and final amino acids in the truncated p67PHOX) in order to localize the binding site. We found that NADPH could bind to p67PHOX(1-243), p67PHOX(1-210), and p67PHOX(1-199) but not to p67PHOX(244-526). The p67PHOX(1-199) fragment consists largely of four tetratricopeptide (TPR) domains. We showed further that Rac2-GTP gamma S and to a lesser extent Rac2-GDP beta S could modulate the binding of NADPH to p67PHOX.
