Structure of bovine endotheial nitric oxide synthase heme domain in complex with N-(4-(2-((3-(thiophene-2-carboximidamido)benzyl)amino)ethyl)phenyl)thiophene-2-carboximidamide
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24447275
Function
[NOS3_BOVIN] Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is implicated in vascular smooth muscle relaxation through a cGMP-mediated signal transduction pathway. NO mediates vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced angiogenesis in coronary vessels and promotes blood clotting through the activation of platelets.
