cytochrome b558 beta subunit (cytochrome b558 heavy chain, P22 phagocyte B-cytochrome, neutrophil cytochrome B 91 kD polypeptide, CGD91phox, gp91phox, heme binding membrane glycoprotein GP91PHOX, superoxide-generating NADPH oxidase heavy chain subunit, CYBB)
Function:
- component of the membrane-bound oxidase of phagocytes that generates superoxide
- terminal component of a respiratory chain that transfers single electrons from cytoplasmic NADPH across the plasma membrane to molecular oxygen on the exterior
- functions as a voltage-gated proton channel that mediates the H+ currents of resting phagocytes
- role in regulation of cellular pH & is blocked by Zn+2
Cofactor: FAD (probable)
Structure:
- glycosylated
- contains 1 ferric oxidoreductase domain
Compartment: membrane
Pathology:
- defects in CYBB are a cause of X-linked chronic granulomatous disease
