Abstract
In phagocytes, superoxide anion (O2-), the precursor of reactive oxygen species, is produced by the NADPH oxidase complex to kill pathogens. Phagocyte NADPH oxidase consists of the transmembrane cytochrome b558 (cyt b558) and four cytosolic components: p40phox, p47phox, p67phox, and Rac1/2. The phagocyte activation by stimuli leads to activation of signal transduction pathways. This is followed by the translocation of cytosolic components to the membrane and their association with cyt b558 to form the active enzyme. To investigate the roles of membrane-interacting domains of the cytosolic proteins in the NADPH oxidase complex assembly and activity, we used giant unilamellar phospholipid vesicles (GUV). We also used the neutrophil-like cell line PLB-985 to investigate these roles under physiological conditions. We confirmed that the isolated proteins must be activated to bind to the membrane. We showed that their membrane binding was strengthened by the presence of the other cytosolic partners, with a key role for p47phox. We also used a fused chimera consisting of p47phox(aa 1-286), p67phox(aa 1-212) and Rac1Q61L, as well as mutated versions in the p47phox PX domain and the Rac polybasic region (PB). We showed that these two domains have a crucial role in the trimera membrane-binding and in the trimera assembly to cyt b558. They also have an impact on O2.- production in vitro and in cellulo: the PX domain strongly binding to GUV made of a mix of polar lipids; and the PB region strongly binding to the plasma membrane of neutrophils and resting PLB-985 cells.

New insights in the molecular regulation of the NADPH oxidase 2 activity: Negative modulation by Poldip2. Free Radic Biol Med 2023; 199:113-125. [PMID: 36828293 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2023.02.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2022] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023]
Abstract
Poldip2 was shown to be involved in oxidative signaling to ensure certain biological functions. It was proposed that, in VSMC, by interaction with the Nox4-associated membrane protein p22phox, Poldip2 stimulates the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. In vitro, with fractionated membranes from HEK393 cells over-expressing Nox4, we confirmed the up-regulation of NADPH oxidase 4 activity by the recombinant and purified Poldip2. Besides Nox4, the Nox1, Nox2, or Nox3 isoforms are also established partners of the p22phox protein raising the question of their regulation by Poldip2 and of the effect in cells expressing simultaneously different Nox isoforms. In this study, we have addressed this issue by investigating the potential regulatory role of Poldip2 on NADPH oxidase 2, present in phagocyte cells. Unexpectedly, the effect of Poldip2 on phagocyte NADPH oxidase 2 was opposite to that observed on NADPH oxidase 4. Using membranes from circulating resting neutrophils, the ROS production rate of NADPH oxidase 2 was down-regulated by Poldip2 (2.5-fold). The down-regulation effect could not be correlated to the interaction of Poldip2 with p22phox but rather, to the interaction of Poldip2 with the p47phox protein, one of the regulatory proteins of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase. Our results show that the interaction of Poldip2 with p47phox constitutes a novel regulatory mechanism that can negatively modulate the activity of NADPH oxidase 2 by trapping the so-called "adaptor" subunit of the complex. Poldip2 could act as a tunable switch capable of specifically regulating the activities of NADPH oxidases. This selective regulatory role of Poldip2, positive for Nox4 or negative for Nox2 could orchestrate the level and the type of ROS generated by Nox enzymes in the cells.

Abstract
The reactive oxygen species (ROS)-producing enzyme NADPH oxidase (NOX) was first identified in the membrane of phagocytic cells. For many years, its only known role was in immune defense, where its ROS production leads to the destruction of pathogens by the immune cells. NOX from phagocytes catalyzes, via one-electron trans-membrane transfer to molecular oxygen, the production of the superoxide anion. Over the years, six human homologs of the catalytic subunit of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase were found: NOX1, NOX3, NOX4, NOX5, DUOX1, and DUOX2. Together with the NOX2/gp91phox component present in the phagocyte NADPH oxidase assembly itself, the homologs are now referred to as the NOX family of NADPH oxidases. NOX are complex multidomain proteins with varying requirements for assembly with combinations of other proteins for activity. The recent structural insights acquired on both prokaryotic and eukaryotic NOX open new perspectives for the understanding of the molecular mechanisms inherent to NOX regulation and ROS production (superoxide or hydrogen peroxide). This new structural information will certainly inform new investigations of human disease. As specialized ROS producers, NOX enzymes participate in numerous crucial physiological processes, including host defense, the post-translational processing of proteins, cellular signaling, regulation of gene expression, and cell differentiation. These diversities of physiological context will be discussed in this review. We also discuss NOX misregulation, which can contribute to a wide range of severe pathologies, such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, diabetic nephropathy, lung fibrosis, cancer, or neurodegenerative diseases, giving this family of membrane proteins a strong therapeutic interest.

Abstract
Our previous studies have shown that intermittent exposure to a 50-Hz, 100-µT sine wave magnetic field (MF) promotes human NB69 cell proliferation, mediated by activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and pathways MAPK-ERK1/2 and p38; being the effects on proliferation and p38 activation blocked by the chelator N-acetylcysteine. The present work investigates the MF effects on free radical (FR) production, and the potential involvement of NADPH oxidase, the main source of reactive oxygen species (ROS), in the MF-induced activation of MAPK pathways. To this end, the field effects on MAPK-ERK1/2, -p38 and -JNK activation in the presence or absence of the NADPH oxidase inhibitor, diphenyleneiodonium chloride (DPI), as well as the expression of the p67phox subunit, were analyzed. The results revealed that field exposure increases FR production and induces early, transient expression of the cytosolic component of the NADPH oxidase, p67phox. Also, the MF-induced activation of the MAPK-JNK pathway, but not that of -ERK1/2 or -p38 pathways, was prevented in the presence of the DPI, which has been shown to significantly reduce p67phox expression. These data, together with those from previous studies, identify various, FR-dependent or -independent mechanisms, involved in the MF-induced proliferative response mediated by MAPK signaling activation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The production of superoxide anions (O2•-) by the phagocyte NADPH oxidase complex has a crucial role in the destruction of pathogens in innate immunity. Majority of in vitro studies on the functioning of NADPH oxidase indirectly follows the enzymatic reaction by the superoxide reduction of cytochrome c (cyt c). Only few reports mention the alternative approach consisting in measuring the NADPH consumption rate. When using membrane vesicles of human neutrophils, the enzyme specific activity is generally found twice higher by monitoring the NADPH oxidation than by measuring the cyt c reduction. Up to now, the literature provides only little explanations about such discrepancy despite the critical importance to quantify the exact enzyme activity. METHODS We deciphered the reasons of this disparity in studying the role of key parameters, including. cyt c and arachidonic acid concentrations, in conjunction with an ionophore, a detergent and using Clark electrode to measure the O2 consumption rates. RESULTS Our results show that the O2•- low permeability of the vesicle membrane as well as secondary reactions (O2•- and H2O2 disproportionations) are strong clues to shed light on this inconsistency. CONCLUSION AND GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE These results altogether indicate that the cyt c reduction method underestimates the accurate Nox2 activity.

Abstract
The superoxide (O2·-)-generating NADPH oxidase complex of phagocytes comprises a membrane-associated heterodimeric flavocytochrome, known as cytochrome b 558 (consisting of NOX2 and p22phox) and four cytosolic regulatory proteins, p47phox, p67phox, p40phox, and the small GTPase Rac. Under physiological conditions, in the resting phagocyte, O2·- generation is initiated by engagement of membrane receptors by a variety of stimuli, followed by signal transduction sequences leading to the translocation of the cytosolic components to the membrane and their association with the cytochrome, a process known as NADPH oxidase assembly. A consequent conformational change in NOX2 initiates the electron flow along a redox gradient, from NADPH to molecular oxygen (O2), leading to the one-electron reduction of O2 to O2·-. Historically, methodological difficulties in the study of the assembled complex derived from stimulated cells, due to its lack of stability, led to the design of "cell-free" systems (also known as "broken cells" or in vitro systems). In a major paradigm shift, the cell-free systems have as their starting point NADPH oxidase components derived from resting (unstimulated) phagocytes, or as in the predominant method at present, recombinant proteins representing the components of the NADPH oxidase complex. In cell-free systems, membrane receptor stimulation and the signal transduction sequence are absent, the accent being placed on the actual process of assembly, all of which takes place in vitro. Thus, a mixture of the individual components of the NADPH oxidase is exposed in vitro to an activating agent, the most common being anionic amphiphiles, resulting in the formation of a complex between cytochrome b 558 and the cytosolic components and O2·- generation in the presence of NADPH. Alternative activating pathways require posttranslational modification of oxidase components or modifying the phospholipid milieu surrounding cytochrome b 558. Activation is commonly quantified by measuring the primary product of the reaction, O2·-, trapped immediately after its generation by an appropriate acceptor in a kinetic assay, permitting the calculation of rates of O2·- production, but numerous variations exist, based on the assessment of reaction products or the consumption of substrates. Cell-free assays played a paramount role in the identification and characterization of the components of the NADPH oxidase complex, the performance of structure-function studies, the deciphering of the mechanisms of assembly, the search for inhibitory drugs, and the diagnosis of various forms of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD).

Abstract
Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy is a widely used method to study the protein secondary structure. However, for decades, the general opinion was that the correct estimation of β-sheet content is challenging because of the large spectral and structural diversity of β-sheets. Recently, we showed that the orientation and twisting of β-sheets account for the observed spectral diversity, and developed a new method to estimate accurately the secondary structure (PNAS, 112, E3095). BeStSel web server provides the Beta Structure Selection method to analyze the CD spectra recorded by conventional or synchrotron radiation CD equipment. Both normalized and measured data can be uploaded to the server either as a single spectrum or series of spectra. The originality of BeStSel is that it carries out a detailed secondary structure analysis providing information on eight secondary structure components including parallel-β structure and antiparallel β-sheets with three different groups of twist. Based on these, it predicts the protein fold down to the topology/homology level of the CATH protein fold classification. The server also provides a module to analyze the structures deposited in the PDB for BeStSel secondary structure contents in relation to Dictionary of Secondary Structure of Proteins data. The BeStSel server is freely accessible at http://bestsel.elte.hu.

Abstract
The NADPH oxidase NOX2 complex consists of assembled cytosolic and redox membrane proteins. In mammalian cells, natural arachidonic acid (cis-AA), released by activated phospholipase-A2, plays an important role in the activation of the NADPH oxidase, but the mechanism of action of cis-AA is still a matter of debate. In cell-free systems, cis-AA is commonly used for activation although its structural effects are still unclear. Undoubtedly cis-AA participates in the synergistic multi-partner assembly that can be hardly studied at the molecular level in vivo due to cellular complexity. The capacity of this anionic amphiphilic fatty acid to activate the oxidase is mainly explained by its ability to disrupt intramolecular bonds, mimicking phosphorylation events in cell signaling and therefore allowing protein-protein interactions. Interestingly the geometric isomerism of the fatty acid and its purity are crucial for optimal superoxide production in cell-free assays. Indeed, optimal NADPH oxidase assembly was hampered by the substitution of the cis form by the trans forms of AA isomers (Souabni et al., BBA-Biomembranes 1818:2314-2324, 2012). Structural analysis of the changes induced by these two compounds, by circular dichroism and by biochemical methods, revealed differences in the interaction between subunits. We describe how the specific geometry of AA plays an important role in the activation of the NOX2 complex.

Abstract
During the phagocytosis of pathogens by phagocyte cells, the NADPH oxidase complex is activated to produce superoxide anion, a precursor of microbial oxidants. The activated NADPH oxidase complex from phagocytes consists in two transmembrane proteins (Nox2 and p22phox) and four cytosolic proteins (p40phox, p47phox, p67phox and Rac1-2). In the resting state of the cells, these proteins are dispersed in the cytosol, the membrane of granules and the plasma membrane. In order to synchronize the assembly of the cytosolic subunits on the membrane components of the oxidase, a fusion of the cytosolic proteins p47phox, p67phox and Rac1 named trimera was constructed. The trimera investigated in this paper is composed of the p47phox segment 1-286, the p67phox segment 1-212 and the mutated Rac1(Q61L). We demonstrate that the complex trimera-cyt b558 is functionally comparable to the one containing the separated subunits. Each of the subunits p47phox, p67phox and Rac1Q61L has kept its own activating property. The trimera is produced in an activated conformation as seen by circular dichroism. However, the presence of amphiphile is still necessary in a cell-free system to trigger superoxide anion production. The COS7gp91-p22 cells expressing the trimera produce continuously superoxide anion at high rate. This constitutive activity in cells can be of particular interest for understanding the NADPH oxidase functioning independently of signaling pathways.
