Nitrotyrosine<ref>[[User:Eric Martz]] wishes to thank [http://www.cancer.ucla.edu/index.aspx?page=645&recordid=338 Hermes J. Garbán] for bringing nitrotyrosine to his attention.</ref> results from the post-translational modification of the [[Amino_Acids|standard amino acid]] tyrosine. Reactive nitrogen compounds produced in inflammation are typically responsible. Nitrosylation of tyrosine tends to inactivate enzymes. In March, 2011, there are 13 entries in the [[PDB]] containing coordinates for 3-nitrotyrosine (meta-nitro-tyrosine), with the [[http://www.proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/Non-Standard_Residues|compound ID]] '''NIY'''. These include six sequence-distinct proteins, represented by ribonucleotide reductase [[2xof]] and [[2xap]], laccase [[3div]], Human Manganese Superoxide Dismutase [[2adp]], Human Glutathione Reductase [[1k4q]], and bovine Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase [[1sda]]. Not surprisingly, the NO<sub>2</sub> adduct, being very hydrophilic, is often on the surface of the protein.

"Inhibition of catalysis can be attributed to a steric effect of 3-nitrotyrosine 34 that impedes substrate access and binding, and alteration of the hydrogen-bond network that supports proton transfer in catalysis. It is also possible that an electrostatic effect of the nitro group has altered the finely tuned redox potential necessary for efficient catalysis, although the redox potential of nitrated MnSOD has not been measured."
