Summary
Enables peroxidase activity. Involved in several processes, including adult chitin-based cuticle development; adult chitin-containing cuticle pigmentation; and imaginal disc-derived wing morphogenesis. Located in endomembrane system. Is expressed in adult head and embryonic/larval fat body. Used to study primary bacterial infectious disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital hypothyroidism and thyroid dyshormonogenesis 6. Orthologous to human DUOX1 (dual oxidase 1) and DUOX2 (dual oxidase 2).
