Facts about Ecto-NOX disulfide-thiol exchanger 2.
Hydroquinone oxidase activity alternates with a protein disulfide- thiol interchange/oxidoreductase activity which might control physical membrane displacements associated with vesicle budding or cell enlargement. The activities oscillate with a period length of 22 minutes and play a role in control of the ultradian cellular biological clock.

Found in the sera of cancer patients with a wide variety of cancers including breast, prostate, lung and ovarian cancers, leukemias, and lymphomas. Not found in the serum of healthy volunteers or patients with disorders other than cancer. Probably shed into serum by cancer cells. Found on the cell borders of renal, kidney and ovarian carcinomas but not on the borders of surrounding non-cancerous stromal cells.
