Structure of rat neuronal nitric oxide synthase heme domain in complex with 6-((((3R,5S)-5-(((6-amino-4-methylpyridin-2-yl)methoxy)methyl)pyrrolidin-3-yl)oxy)methyl)-4-methylpyridin-2-amine
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24145412
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.
