Ecto-nox disulfide-thiol exchanger 1

Function

Electron transport pathways are generally associated with mitochondrial membranes, but non-mitochondrial pathways are also biologically significant. Plasma membrane electron transport pathways are involved in functions as diverse as cellular defense, intracellular redox homeostasis, and control of cell growth and survival. Members of the ecto-NOX family, such as CNOX, or ENOX1, are involved in plasma membrane transport pathways. These enzymes exhibit both a hydroquinone (NADH) oxidase activity and a protein disulfide-thiol interchange activity in series, with each activity cycling every 22 to 26 minutes (Scarlett et al., 2005 [PubMed 15882838]).

gollark: So leave it and ignore it in a specific place. Maybe the Moon or something, if space travel gets cheaper.
gollark: Apparently the recycling of solar panels isn't very efficient or cost-effective right now.
gollark: It's still quite small, so you can shove it in a box somewhere and ignore it, or apparently run much of it through a breeder reactor to reuse it.
gollark: The nuclear waste problem isn't even that much of an issue compared to vast amounts of degraded solar panels, it's much lower in volume.
gollark: ħi.
