The PX domain is a phosphoinositide-binding structural domain involved in targeting of proteins to cell membranes.

This domain was first found in P40phox and p47phox domains of NADPH oxidase (phox stands for phagocytic oxidase).[1][2] It was also identified in many other proteins involved in membrane trafficking, including nexins, Phospholipase D, and phosphoinositide-3-kinases.

The PX domain is structurally conserved in eukaryotes, although amino acid sequences show little similarity.[3] PX domains interact primarily with PtdIns(3)P lipids.[4][5] However some of them bind to phosphatidic acid, PtdIns(3,4)P2, PtdIns(3,5)P2, PtdIns(4,5)P2, and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. The PX-domain can also interact with other domains and proteins.
