Abstract excerpt
Production of microbicidal oxidants by phagocytic leukocytes requires activation of a latent NADPH oxidase by the coordinated assembly of a membrane-associated flavocytochrome b558, with three cytosolic components, p47phox, p67phox, and the low molecular weight GTP-binding protein Rac. Rac1 and Rac2 have 92% sequence identity and are both active in supporting the oxidase, while CDC42Hs, the closest relative to...
