Official Symbol: bli-3
Official Full Name: Dual oxidase 1
Primary source: WormBase:WBGene00000253
Locus tag: CELE_F56C11.1
See related: AllianceGenome:WB:WBGene00000253

RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans (strain: Bristol N2)
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Ecdysozoa; Nematoda; Chromadorea; Rhabditida; Rhabditina; Rhabditomorpha; Rhabditoidea; Rhabditidae; Peloderinae; Caenorhabditis
Summary: Enables NAD(P)H oxidase H2O2-forming activity; heme binding activity; and peroxidase activity. Involved in several processes, including cuticle development involved in collagen and cuticulin-based cuticle molting cycle; defense response to other organism; and post-embryonic body morphogenesis. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in hypodermis; intestine; and neurons. Used to study phenylketonuria. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital hypothyroidism and thyroid dyshormonogenesis 6. Orthologous to several human genes including DUOX2 (dual oxidase 2).

What's a GeneRIF?

hpx-2 mutant animals possessed a weaker cuticle structure, indicated by higher permeability to a DNA dye, but exhibited no obvious morphological defects. In addition, fluorescent labeling of HPX-2 revealed its expression in the pharynx, an organ in which BLI-3 is also present. Interestingly, loss of HPX-2 increased intestinal colonization of E. faecalis, suggesting its role in the pharynx may limit intestinal colonization

Here, the authors identified the Caenorhabditis elegans orthologue of mammalian mediator of ErbB2-driven cell motility, MEMO-1, as a protein that inhibits BLI-3/NADPH oxidase.

proline catabolism governs reactive oxygen species (ROS) homeostasis and subsequent activation of SKN-1, a critical transcription factor regulating xenobiotic stress response and pathogen defense. Intriguingly, proline catabolism-mediated activation of SKN-1 requires cell-membrane dual-oxidase Ce-Duox1/BLI-3, highlighting the importance of interaction between mitochondrial and cell-membrane components in host defense.

We demonstrated that TSP-15, BLI-3, and DOXA-1 form complexes in vitro and in vivo. Cell-fusion-based analysis suggested that association with TSP-15 at the cell surface is crucial for BLI-3 activation to release H(2)O(2).
