    • Abstract:
      Superoxide-producing NADPH oxidase, gp91 phox /NOX2, in phagocytes plays a critical role in the host defenses against pathogens. Moreover, gp91 phox /NOX2 contributes to the oxidative stress in endothelial cells. Therefore, investigating the level of gp91 phox /NOX2 with immunoblotting is important for estimating the amount of superoxide produced. Here, we showed that the epitopes in human gp91 phox /NOX2 recognized by monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) CL-5 and 48 were in amino acids 132-147 and 136-144, respectively. Although the epitopes were close to the N-glycosylation sites, N-glycan maturation did not affect mAbs recognition. When Pro-136 was substituted with Arg, the corresponding mouse residue, human gp91 phox /NOX2 was not recognized by mAbs CL-5 and 48; however, the substitution did not affect gp91 phox /NOX2-based oxidase activity. This finding explains why these mAbs specifically recognize the human but not mouse gp91 phox /NOX2. Hence, these mAbs are useful for investigating the level of gp91 phox /NOX2 without amino acid substitutions in the epitopes.
