Transmembrane Nox4 topology revealed by topological determination by Ubiquitin Fusion Assay, a novel method to uncover membrane protein topology

The NADPH oxidase Nox4 is a multi-pass membrane protein responsible for the generation of reactive oxygen species that are implicated in cellular signaling but may also cause pathological situations when dysregulated. Although topological organization of integral membrane protein dictates its function, only limited experimental data describing Nox4's topology are available. To provide deeper insight on Nox4 structural organization, we developed...
