Neutrophil cytosol factor 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NCF1 gene.

The protein encoded by this gene is a 47 kDa cytosolic subunit of neutrophil NADPH oxidase. This oxidase is a multicomponent enzyme that is activated to produce superoxide anion. Mutations in this gene have been associated with chronic granulomatous disease. p47 is vital to the activation of NADPH oxidase. P47 becomes heavily phosphorylated

Famous quotes containing the word factor:

    Weapons are an important factor in war, but not the decisive factor; it is people, not things, that are decisive. The contest of strength is not only a contest of military and economic power, but also a contest of human power and morale. Military and economic power is necessarily wielded by people.
    Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
