Structure of rat neuronal nitric oxide synthase heme domain in complex with 6,6'-(heptane-1,7-diyl)bis(4-methylpyridin-2-amine)

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23867386

Function

[NOS1_RAT] Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is a messenger molecule with diverse functions throughout the body. In the brain and peripheral nervous system, NO displays many properties of a neurotransmitter. Inhibitory transmitter for non-adrenergic and non-cholinergic nerves in the colorectum. Probably has nitrosylase activity and mediates cysteine S-nitrosylation of cytoplasmic target proteins such SRR. Inhibitory transmitter for non-adrenergic and non-cholinergic nerves in the colorectum.
