研究背景
Nitric oxide is a reactive free radical which acts as a biologic mediator in several processes, including neurotransmission and antimicrobial and antitumoral activities. This gene encodes a nitric oxide synthase which is expressed in liver and is inducible by a combination of lipopolysaccharide and certain cytokines. Three related pseudogenes are located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],catalytic activity:L-arginine + n NADPH + n H(+) + m O(2) = citrulline + nitric oxide + n NADP(+).,cofactor:Binds 1 FAD.,cofactor:Binds 1 FMN.,cofactor:Heme group.,cofactor:Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). May stabilize the dimeric form of the enzyme.,enzyme regulation:Regulated by calcium/calmodulin. Aspirin inhibits expression and function of this enzyme and effects may be exerted at the level of translational/post-translational modification and directly on the catalytic activity.,function:Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is a messenger molecule with diverse functions throughout the body. In macrophages, NO mediates tumoricidal and bactericidal actions.,induction:By endotoxins and cytokines.,online information:Nitric oxide synthase entry,similarity:Belongs to the NOS family.,similarity:Contains 1 FAD-binding FR-type domain.,similarity:Contains 1 flavodoxin-like domain.,subunit:Homodimer. Binds SLC9A3R1.,tissue specificity:Expressed in the liver, retina, bone cells and airway epithelial cells of the lung. Not expressed in the platelets.,
