Gene details

HGNC symbol
ENOX1
Aliases
CNOX; PIG38; cCNOX; bA64J21.1 
Common name
ecto-NOX disulfide-thiol exchanger 1 
Description
The protein encoded by this gene is involved in plasma membrane electron transport pathways. The encoded protein has both a hydroquinone (NADH) oxidase activity and a protein disulfide-thiol interchange activity. The two activities cycle with a periodicity of 24 minutes, with one activity being at its peak when the other is at its lowest. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]
