DiseaseNCF4_HUMAN Defects in NCF4 are the cause of chronic granulomatous disease autosomal recessive cytochrome-b-positive type 3 (CGD3) [MIM:613960. CGD3 is a disorder characterized by the inability of neutrophils and phagocytes to kill microbes that they have ingested. Patients suffer from life-threatening bacterial/fungal infections.[1] FunctionNCF4_HUMAN Component of the NADPH-oxidase, a multicomponent enzyme system responsible for the oxidative burst in which electrons are transported from NADPH to molecular oxygen, generating reactive oxidant intermediates. It may be important for the assembly and/or activation of the NADPH-oxidase complex. Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedMore than 50 human proteins with a wide range of functions have a 120 residue phosphoinositide binding module known as the PX domain. The 1.7 A X-ray crystal structure of the PX domain from the p40(phox) subunit of NADPH oxidase bound to PtdIns(3)P shows that the PX domain embraces the 3-phosphate on one side of a water-filled, positively charged pocket and reveals how 3-phosphoinositide specificity is achieved. A chronic granulomatous disease (CGD)-associated mutation in the p47(phox) PX domain that abrogates PtdIns(3)P binding maps to a conserved Arg that does not directly interact with the phosphoinositide but instead appears to stabilize a critical lipid binding loop. The SH3 domain present in the full-length protein does not affect soluble PtdIns(3)P binding to the p40(phox) PX domain.
