Predicted to enable NAD(P)H oxidase H2O2-forming activity; calcium ion binding activity; and superoxide-generating NAD(P)H oxidase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including bone mineralization; endocrine system development; and thyroid hormone metabolic process. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell leading edge; cell surface; and endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be part of NADPH oxidase complex.
