Abstrakt: Hydrogen peroxide, produced by Dual Oxidase (Duox), is essential for thyroid hormone synthesis. Duox activation involves Ca 2+ binding to its EF-hand Domain (EFD), which contains two EF-hands (EFs). In this study, we characterized a truncated EFD using spectrometry, calorimetry, electrophoretic mobility, and gel filtration to obtain its Ca 2+ binding thermodynamic and kinetics, as well as to assess the associated conformational changes. Our results revealed that its 2nd EF-hand (EF2) exhibits a strong exothermic Ca 2+ binding (K a  = 10 7  M -1 ) while EF1 shows a weaker binding (K a  = 10 5  M -1 ), resulting in the burial of its negatively charged residues. The Ca 2+ binding to EFD results in a stable structure with a melting temperature shifting from 67 to 99 °C and induces a structural transition from a dimeric to monomeric form. EF2 appears to play a role in dimer formation in its apo form, while the hydrophobic exposure of Ca 2+ -bound-EF1 is crucial for dimer formation in its holo form. The result is consistent with structures obtained from Cryo-EM, indicating that a stable structure of EFD with hydrophobic patches upon Ca 2+ binding is vital for its Duox's domain-domain interaction for electron transfer.
