Molecular evolution of the reactive oxygen-generating NADPH oxidase (Nox/Duox) family of enzymes

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>NADPH-oxidases (Nox) and the related Dual oxidases (Duox) play varied biological and pathological roles via regulated generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Members of the Nox/Duox family have been identified in a wide variety...
