Gene Description

DUOX1 (dual oxidase 1) is a large, multi-pass membrane flavocytochrome that generates extracellular hydrogen peroxide. Its cytosolic dehydrogenase domain binds NADPH and FAD and passes electrons through two hemes in the 24-helix transmembrane layer to oxygen on the outer face of the membrane, producing H2O2 rather than superoxide. Activity is switched on by calcium through EF-hand modules in the long intracellular loop. The enzyme is obligately paired with the maturation factor DUOXA1, with which it folds and is N-glycosylated in the endoplasmic reticulum and then travels to the cell surface; in polarized epithelia the complex is sorted to the apical plasma membrane, and in migrating cells it concentrates at the leading edge. A large N-terminal peroxidase-homology domain faces the extracellular space, but in the human protein it lacks the heme-ligating histidine, binds no heme and has no intrinsic peroxidase activity, so its role is unresolved; the nematode orthologue's equivalent domain does bind heme and cross-links cuticle tyrosines. DUOX1 is expressed most strongly in airway surface epithelium and in thyrocytes. The H2O2 it releases is the co-substrate for extracellular peroxidases (lactoperoxidase at mucosal surfaces, thyroid peroxidase in the thyroid follicle, where DUOX2 is the dominant paralog), and also acts as a diffusible signal that drives EGFR/ERK and NF-kB-dependent epithelial responses to bacterial stimuli, antiviral defense via hypothiocyanite, cell motility and wound closure.

Proposed New Ontology Terms

NAADPH oxidase (NAADP-forming) activity

Definition: Catalysis of the reaction: NAADPH + O2 + H+ = NAADP+ + H2O2. NAADPH is the reduced form of nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate, the calcium-mobilising second messenger; its oxidation by a NOX/DUOX-family flavocytochrome regenerates NAADP.

Justification: UniProt records this catalytic activity for human DUOX1 with experimental evidence (Rhea:86235) from the study that identified NOX and DUOX enzymes as NAADP-forming, and no GO molecular function covers the NAADPH substrate: GO:0016174 is defined on NAD(P)H. No annotation is proposed here; the entry records the ontology gap.

Summary: Keep the NOT annotation. Two independent experiments agree that the N-terminal peroxidase-homology domain (PHD) of human DUOX1 is not a working peroxidase: the purified isolated domain binds no heme and has no peroxidase activity, and the cryo-EM structure of the full-length DUOX1-DUOXA1 complex shows the heme-ligating histidine absent and no heme density in the PHD.
Reason: The negation is domain-specific and does not conflict with the heme binding annotated elsewhere in this review: the two hemes of DUOX1 are in the transmembrane NOX core, not in the PHD. The one contrary report, in which an E. coli-expressed h-Duox peroxidase domain cross-linked tyrosine ethyl ester (PMID:11514595), is the conflict UniProt records in its CAUTION line; it predates both direct heme measurements and is not a reason to drop a negation that two later, more direct assays support. The C. elegans orthologue behaves differently (its PHD binds heme covalently and has modest peroxidase activity), which is a property of that lineage and not of human DUOX1.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:19460756
the isolated hDUOX1(1-593) does not bind heme and has no intrinsic peroxidase activity
PMID:33420071
key residues for heme binding, such as the heme ligand histidine, are missing in the PHD of hDUOX1
PMID:33420071
we did not observe any heme density in the structure of hDUOX1 PHD, suggesting PHD is probably not enzymatic functional in term of peroxidase activity

In contrast, CeDUOX1(1-589) binds heme covalently, exhibits a modest peroxidase activity, but does not oxidize bromide ion.

Summary: Calcium binding is part of the catalytic mechanism: DUOX1 carries EF-hand modules in its long intracellular loop, calcium is resolved in the cryo-EM structure, and H2O2 production by the reconstituted DUOX1-DUOXA1 complex is calcium-activated.
Reason: Core. Calcium occupancy of the EF-hands is the switch that converts the complex to the active state, so this is a direct component of the oxidase mechanism rather than an incidental ligand. The InterPro EF-hand (IPR002048) mapping on the IEA row agrees with the structural evidence.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Endoplasmic reticulum localization reflects DUOX1 maturation rather than the site of its activity: the oxidase is N-glycosylated and oxidatively folded in the ER and only reaches the plasma membrane after pairing with DUOXA1.
Reason: True but peripheral. The immature, partially glycosylated DUOX protein is ER-resident and is catalytically different from the mature enzyme (in the DUOX2 experiments it leaks superoxide rather than releasing H2O2), and ER-to-Golgi transport of DUOX1 requires physical interaction with DUOXA1. The curator-observed ER staining is not disputed; it is simply not where DUOX1 does its work.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:15972824
the partially glycosylated form of Duox2, located in the endoplasmic reticulum, generates superoxide in a calcium-dependent manner

GO:0006590 thyroid hormone generation
IEA
GO_REF:0000041
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: DUOX1 performs a step of thyroid hormone synthesis: it generates the H2O2 that thyroid peroxidase consumes to iodinate thyroglobulin, and H2O2 supply is the limiting factor for that reaction.
Reason: This is participation, not merely necessity, because DUOX1 itself catalyses the H2O2-forming half-reaction at the apical membrane of the thyrocyte rather than being a substrate of the pathway. It is non-core for DUOX1 specifically: DUOX2 is the dominant thyroid isoform and the gene in which biallelic loss causes congenital hypothyroidism, whereas DUOX1 is predominantly an airway enzyme. The UniPathway mapping behind the IEA therefore states something true but secondary for this paralog.

IBA
GO_REF:0000033
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: DUOX1-derived H2O2 feeds extracellular peroxidases at mucosal surfaces, and this defensive role is conserved across the NOX/DUOX family.
Reason: True and broadly supported, but kept as non-core because the more specific defense terms annotated elsewhere in this review (antiviral innate immune response, positive regulation of defense response to bacterium) say what DUOX1 actually contributes. The IBA sits at PAINT node PTN000239643 and lists this protein among its seeds, which is expected: the gene's own experimental evidence helped place the IBD, and the IBA then adds that the role is inherited rather than lineage-specific.

GO:0006979 response to oxidative stress
IEA
GO_REF:0000002
REMOVE
Summary: This is an InterPro2GO mapping from the animal haem peroxidase signature IPR010255, which DUOX1 matches through its N-terminal peroxidase-homology domain. In human DUOX1 that domain binds no heme and has no peroxidase activity, and DUOX1 is a producer of reactive oxygen species rather than a participant in a response to oxidative stress.
Reason: The domain that triggers the mapping is the one shown structurally and biochemically to lack the heme ligand and any peroxidase function in this protein, so the premise of the automatic inference fails here. Beyond that, the mapping inverts the biology: oxidant generation is not oxidant detoxification or sensing, and no experiment attributes an oxidative-stress response role to DUOX1. Removing an electronic mapping that is wrong on both counts leaves the gene's genuine ROS terms untouched.

Reason: GO:0140374 is a descendant of GO:0009615, and the experimental work (Duox1-null mice with impaired influenza clearance; LPO-generated hypothiocyanite from DUOX1-derived H2O2 inactivating influenza) supports the specific term.

Reason: Correct but coarse: cell surface is the readout available in a non-polarized heterologous system, while the informative locations for DUOX1 are the plasma membrane and, in polarized epithelia, the apical plasma membrane, both annotated and accepted here. Kept rather than modified because the COS-7 experiments cannot distinguish an apical pool.

GO:0016175 superoxide-generating NAD(P)H oxidase activity
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
MODIFY
Summary: The mature DUOX1-DUOXA1 complex releases hydrogen peroxide, not superoxide; the superoxide-generating activity belongs to the NOX branch of the family.
Reason: This is a lateral correction within the family, argued from the phylogeny rather than from similarity. PAINT placed GO:0016175 at PTN000239643, the deep NOX/DUOX ancestor seeded by NOX1, NOX2 (CYBB), NOX4, NOX5 and their rodent and amoebal relatives, and placed the H2O2-forming activity GO:0016174 separately at the DUOX-specific node PTN000944147, whose seeds include DUOX1 itself. The experimental record agrees with that split: mature DUOX does not release superoxide but H2O2, superoxide leakage is seen only from the immature ER form of DUOX2 or when the DUOXA2 N-terminus is altered, and the C-terminus of DUOXA1 directs DUOX1 to H2O2 output. The claim is not false of the family, but it is false of this protein, so the replacement is the sibling term the DUOX node carries.

Summary: The experiment behind this row measured induction of DUOX1 transcript by the Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-13. That makes DUOX1 a target of cytokine signaling, not a component of the signaling pathway.
Reason: A gene whose expression rises on cytokine treatment responds to the cytokine; it does not thereby transduce the receptor-proximal pathway, and no step of IL-4/IL-13 signal transduction is executed by DUOX1. The honest term is the parent-level cellular response to cytokine stimulus, which the gene already carries from an independent source. This is a deliberate generalization, not a refinement.

Reason: DUOX1 does work here: the H2O2 it produces is the signal that drives the pathway, so this is more than a downstream phenotype. It is kept as non-core because it is one of several signaling consequences of the same oxidase activity rather than an additional function of the protein.

REMOVE
Summary: The phenotype behind this IMP is nematode: RNA interference against Ce-Duox1, which is expressed in hypodermal cells underlying the larval cuticle, abolished di- and trityrosine cross-links and disrupted the cuticle. The paper's human experiments are different ones, on the expressed peroxidase domain in vitro, and humans have no cuticle for DUOX1 to build.
Reason: This is a cross-species transfer of a C. elegans loss-of-function phenotype onto the human protein, not a human experiment, and the cross-linking chemistry it depends on is lineage-specific. The nematode protein (bli-3, UniProtKB:O61213) sits in PANTHER subfamily PTHR11972:SF175, not in SF75 with human, mouse, rat, dog and pig DUOX1, and its peroxidase-homology domain binds heme covalently and has peroxidase activity whereas the human domain does neither. Both the phylogenetic placement and the biochemistry block the transfer, so the annotation should not stand on the human gene. The underlying nematode finding is not disputed and belongs on bli-3.

Summary: DUOX1 generates hydrogen peroxide; superoxide is the product of the NOX branch of the family, and is seen from DUOX only as leakage from immature or mispaired complexes.
Reason: The IBA comes from PTN000239643, the deep NOX/DUOX node seeded by NOX1, NOX2, NOX4, NOX5 and rodent and amoebal homologues, and the NAS row rests on the 2000 cloning paper's observation that the ThOX polypeptides are related to gp91phox, which is sequence similarity rather than a measured product. Direct measurement shows the mature thyroid oxidase releases H2O2 rather than superoxide, with superoxide only from the partially glycosylated ER form, and DUOXA1's C-terminus directs DUOX1 to H2O2. The corresponding true process term for this protein is hydrogen peroxide biosynthetic process, which the gene already carries with IDA support.

Summary: DUOX1 is a subunit of a membrane NADPH oxidase complex with DUOXA1, resolved by cryo-EM as a heterotetramer of two DUOX1-DUOXA1 heterodimers.
Reason: Core. Complex membership is established structurally for the human proteins and is the form in which the enzyme is active; the IBA at PTN000239643 makes the same claim at family level with this protein among its seeds.

Summary: Correct but less specific than the evidence supports: the dehydrogenase domain binds NADPH, the reduced substrate, which is resolved in the structure.

Reason: Kept as non-core with an explicit caveat about the IDA's source: the promoter study cited by that row reports that the two human ThOX promoters are not positively controlled by cAMP, so it is a weak basis for the term.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Because H2O2 supply is the limiting factor for peroxidase-catalysed iodination, the amount of DUOX activity at the apical thyrocyte membrane sets the rate of hormone synthesis.
Reason: Retained as non-core alongside the thyroid hormone generation row: both describe the same contribution and DUOX2, not DUOX1, is the thyroid-dominant paralog. The NAS source is a DUOX2/DUOXA2 study, so it carries the family-level claim rather than DUOX1-specific evidence; it is not removed, because the underlying biochemistry applies to both paralogs where DUOX1 is expressed in thyrocytes.
Supporting Evidence:

Core Functions

Calcium-activated, NADPH-dependent generation of extracellular hydrogen peroxide. As the catalytic subunit of the DUOX1-DUOXA1 complex at the plasma membrane, DUOX1 oxidizes cytosolic NADPH, passes the electrons through FAD and two transmembrane hemes, and reduces extracellular oxygen to H2O2. EF-hand calcium binding gates the reaction. The H2O2 produced is used by extracellular peroxidases (lactoperoxidase at airway surfaces, thyroid peroxidase in the thyroid follicle) and acts as a diffusible redox signal.

Supporting Evidence:
  • PMID:33420071
    we found the co-expression of DUOX1 and DUOXA1 resulted in cell membranes that showed robust calcium-activated, NADPH-dependent hydrogen peroxide production detected by the Amplex Red assay

  • PMID:39126279
    The membrane-integrated NADPH oxidases DUOX1 and DUOX2 are recruited to the apical plasma membrane in epithelial cells to release hydrogen peroxide, thereby playing crucial roles in various functions such as thyroid hormone synthesis and host defense.

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: What is the function of the human DUOX1 peroxidase-homology domain, given that it binds no heme and has no peroxidase activity? Does it instead dock an extracellular peroxidase such as lactoperoxidase so that H2O2 is channelled directly to it?

Q: Should the conflict between PMID:11514595 (peroxidase activity from an E. coli-expressed human Duox peroxidase domain) and PMID:19460756 plus the cryo-EM structure (no heme, no activity) be resolved in GO by keeping the NOT GO:0004601 annotation, as this review recommends, or by recording both? UniProt currently records both in a CAUTION line.

Q: Does GO need a molecular function for the NAADPH-oxidizing, NAADP-forming reaction that UniProt attributes to DUOX1 (Rhea:86235), and is the reaction physiologically relevant for DUOX1 as opposed to DUOX2, which carried the T-cell calcium-microdomain phenotype?

Q: Where DUOX1 and DUOX2 are co-expressed, which peroxidase consumes which oxidase's H2O2? The substrate-channelling question determines whether thyroid hormone generation and lactoperoxidase-dependent defense should be annotated to both paralogs or only to one.

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Express and purify the isolated human DUOX1 PHD and test binding to lactoperoxidase and thyroid peroxidase by surface plasmon resonance and by pull-down from airway secretions; then delete or swap the PHD in full-length DUOX1 co-expressed with DUOXA1 in polarized MDCK or primary airway cells and measure whether hypothiocyanite production, but not bulk H2O2 output, is lost.

Hypothesis: The human DUOX1 peroxidase-homology domain is a protein-interaction module that recruits extracellular peroxidases rather than a catalytic domain.

Type: binding and reconstitution assay

Experiment: Compare spin-trapping EPR and Amplex Red measurements on purified, peptidisc-reconstituted human DUOX1-DUOXA1 against the immature ER-resident form and against DUOX1 mispaired with DUOXA2, under identical calcium and NADPH conditions, to quantify the superoxide-to-H2O2 ratio for each species.

Hypothesis: DUOX1 releases H2O2 and never superoxide, whereas the superoxide seen in DUOX preparations comes from immature or mispaired complexes.

Type: biochemistry

Experiment: Reconstitute purified DUOX1-DUOXA1 and DUOX2-DUOXA2 with NAADPH and measure NAADP formation by LC-MS as a function of calcium, in parallel with H2O2 output, and test DUOX1-null airway epithelial cells for altered NAADP levels and calcium signalling.

Hypothesis: The NAADPH-oxidizing activity attributed to DUOX enzymes is carried by DUOX1 in cells where DUOX1 is the dominant paralog.

Type: enzymology and cell biology

Knowledge Gaps

What is not known β€” curated, literature-grounded statements of the open unknowns (the inverse of core functions).

Gap: What the extracellular peroxidase-homology domain of human DUOX1 does is unknown. It occupies roughly the first 590 residues, is retained throughout vertebrate DUOX evolution, and yet binds no heme and shows no peroxidase activity in the human protein, while the C. elegans equivalent binds heme covalently and cross-links cuticle tyrosines.

OPEN BIOLOGY MF_DARK

Significance: Without knowing the domain's function it is not possible to say whether human DUOX1 has a second catalytic or ligand-handling activity, or whether the domain is purely structural, holding the complex at the membrane surface or positioning a partner peroxidase such as lactoperoxidase.
