This enzyme catalyses the transfer of electrons from NADPH, an obligatory two-electron donor, to microsomal P-450 monooxygenases (e.g. EC 1.14.14.1, unspecific monooxygenase) by stabilizing the one-electron reduced form of the flavin cofactors FAD and FMN. It also reduces cytochrome b5 and cytochrome c. The number n in the equation is 1 if the hemoprotein undergoes a 2-electron reduction, and is 2 if it undergoes a 1-electron reduction.

EC 1.6.3.3 NADH oxidase (H2O2-forming)

EC 1.6.3.1

Accepted name: NAD(P)H oxidase (H2O2-forming)

Reaction: NAD(P)H + H+ + O2 = NAD(P)+ + H2O2

Other name(s): THOX2; ThOX; dual oxidase; p138tox; thyroid NADPH oxidase; thyroid oxidase; thyroid oxidase 2; NADPH oxidase; NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase; NAD(P)H oxidase

Systematic name: NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase (H2O2-forming)

Comments: Requires FAD, heme and calcium. When calcium is present, this transmembrane glycoprotein generates H2O2 by transfering electrons from intracellular NAD(P)H to extracellular molecular oxygen. The electron bridge within the enzyme contains one molecule of FAD and probably two heme groups. This flavoprotein is expressed at the apical membrane of thyrocytes, and provides H2O2 for the thyroid peroxidase-catalysed biosynthesis of thyroid hormones.

EC 1.6.3.3

Accepted name: NADH oxidase (H2O2-forming)

Reaction: NADH + H+ + O2 = NAD+ + H2O2

Other name(s): NOX-1; H2O2-forming NADH oxidase

Systematic name: NADH:oxygen oxidoreductase (H2O2-forming)

Comments: A flavoprotein (FAD). The bacterium Streptococcus mutans contains two distinct NADH oxidases, a H2O2-forming enzyme and a H2O-forming enzyme (cf. EC 1.6.3.4, NADH oxidase (H2O-forming)) [1]. The enzymes from the anaerobic archaea Methanocaldococcus jannaschii [6] and Pyrococcus furiosus [3] also produce low amounts of H2O. Unlike EC 1.6.3.1 (NAD(P)H oxidase) it has no activity towards NADPH.

EC 1.6.3.5

Accepted name: renalase

Reaction: (1) 1,2-dihydro-β-NAD(P) + H+ + O2 = β-NAD(P)+ + H2O2
(2) 1,6-dihydro-β-NAD(P) + H+ + O2 = β-NAD(P)+ + H2O2

Other name(s): αNAD(P)H oxidase/anomerase (incorrect); NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase (H2O2-forming, epimerising) (incorrect)

Systematic name: dihydro-NAD(P):oxygen oxidoreductase (H2O2-forming)

Comments: Requires FAD. Renalase, previously thought to be a hormone, is a flavoprotein secreted into the blood by the kidney that oxidizes the 1,2-dihydro- and 1,6-dihydro- isomeric forms of β-NAD(P)H back to β-NAD(P)+. These isomeric forms, generated by nonspecific reduction of β-NAD(P)+ or by tautomerization of β-NAD(P)H, are potent inhibitors of primary metabolism dehydrogenases and pose a threat to normal respiration.

Comments: A zinc enzyme, specific for NADPH. Catalyses the one-electron reduction of certain quinones, with the orthoquinones 1,2-naphthoquinone and 9,10-phenanthrenequinone being the best substrates [1]. Dicoumarol [cf. EC 1.6.5.2 NAD(P)H dehydrogenase (quinone)] and nitrofurantoin are competitive inhibitors with respect to the quinone substrate. The semiquinone free radical product may be non-enzymically reduced to the hydroquinone or oxidized back to quinone in the presence of O2 [1]. In some mammals the enzyme is abundant in the lens of the eye, where it is identified with the protein ζ-crystallin.

[EC 1.6.99.1 created 1961, modified 1976]

[EC 1.6.99.2 Transferred entry: now EC 1.6.5.2, NAD(P)H dehydrogenase (quinone). The enzyme was erroneously transferred from this sub-subclass in 1965 (EC 1.6.99.2 created 1961 as EC 1.6.5.2, transferred 1965 to EC 1.6.99.2, deleted 2005)]

[EC 1.6.99.3 covered by: NADH dehydrogenase. The activity is covered by EC 7.1.1.2, NADH:ubiquinone reductase (H+-translocating) (EC 1.6.99.3 created 1961 as EC 1.6.2.1, transferred 1965 to EC 1.6.99.3, modified 2018, deleted 2020)]

[EC 1.6.99.4 Transferred entry: now EC 1.18.1.2 ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase (EC 1.6.99.4 created 1965, deleted 1972)]

[EC 1.6.99.5 Transferred entry: NADH dehydrogenase (quinone). Transferred to EC 1.6.5.11, NADH dehydrogenase (quinone) (EC 1.6.99.5 created 1972, deleted 2014)]

[EC 1.6.99.6 Transferred entry: Transferred to EC 1.6.5.10, NADPH dehydrogenase (quinone) (EC 1.6.99.6 created 1972, deleted 2011)]

[EC 1.6.99.7 Transferred entry: now EC 1.5.1.34 6,7-dihydropteridine reductase. (EC 1.6.99.7 created 1972, modified 1981 (EC 1.6.99.10 created 1978, incorporated 1981), deleted 2003)]

[EC 1.6.99.8 Deleted entry: aquacobalamin reductase. This entry has been deleted since no specific enzyme catalysing this activity has been identified and it has been shown that aquacobalamin is efficiently reduced by free dihydroflavins and by non-specific reduced flavoproteins. (EC 1.6.99.8 created 1972, deleted 2002)]

[EC 1.6.99.9 Transferred entry: now EC 1.16.1.4, cob(II)alamin reductase (EC 1.6.99.9 created 1972, deleted 2002)]

EC 1.6.99.10 Deleted entry: now included with EC 1.5.1.34, 6,7-dihydropteridine reductase [EC 1.6.99.10 created 1978, deleted 1981]

[EC 1.6.99.11 Deleted entry: aquacobalamin reductase (NADPH). This entry has been deleted since the enzyme the entry was based on was later shown to be EC 1.2.1.51, pyruvate dehydrogenase (NADP+). On the other hand, it has been shown that non-enzymatic reduction of cob(III)alamin to cob(II)alamin occurs efficiently in the presence of free dihydroflavins or non-specific reduced flavoproteins. (EC 1.6.99.11 created 1989, deleted 2002)]

[EC 1.6.99.12 Transferred entry: now EC 1.16.1.6, cyanocobalamin reductase (cyanide-eliminating) (EC 1.6.99.12 created 1989, deleted 2002)]

[EC 1.6.99.13 Transferred entry: now EC 1.16.1.7, ferric-chelate reductase (EC 1.6.99.13 created 1992, deleted 2002)]
