Characterization of the 1<sup>st </sup>and 2<sup>nd </sup>EF-hands of NADPH oxidase 5 by fluorescence, isothermal titration calorimetry, and circular dichroism

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Superoxide generated by non-phagocytic NADPH oxidases (NOXs) is of growing importance for physiology and pathobiology. The calcium binding domain (CaBD) of NOX5 contains four EF-hands, each binding one calcium ion. To better understa...
