Requires FAD, heme and calcium. When calcium is present, this transmembrane glycoprotein generates H2O2 by transfering electrons from intracellular NAD(P)H to extracellular molecular oxygen. The electron bridge within the enzyme contains one molecule of FAD and probably two heme groups. This flavoprotein is expressed at the apical membrane of thyrocytes, and provides H2O2 for the thyroid peroxidase-catalysed biosynthesis of thyroid hormones.

NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase (H2O2-forming)
Requires FAD, heme and calcium. When calcium is present, this transmembrane glycoprotein generates H2O2 by transfering electrons from intracellular NAD(P)H to extracellular molecular oxygen.

isoform RbohD is directly phosphorylated in vivo. Phophorylation is enhanced in presence of protein phosphatase inhibitor calyculin. Calyculin itself induces reactive oxygen species production and dramatically enhances the ionomycin-induced reactive oxygen species production of isoform RbohD
reactive oxygen species production by isoform RbohD is induced in presence of ionomycin. Ionomycin induces calcium influx into the cell, and following Ca2+ binding to the EF-hand motif of RbohD, conformational changes result in activation
the plant hormone abscisic acid triggers production of reactive oxygen species in guard cells via the AtrbohD and AtrbohF NADPH oxidases, leading to stomatal closure. The ABA-activated SnRK2 protein kinase open stomata 1 (OST1) regulates AtrbohF activity
mutants lacking the activity of isoform rdh2/Atrbohc exhibit an impaired root epidermal cell wall, and mutant root hair bulges burst more than wild-type when challegned in situ with hypo-osmotic low ionic strength medium
