| Background Information | Nitric oxide (NO) is an inorganic, gaseous free radical that carries a variety of messages between cells. nNOS/NOS I, also known as NC-NOS, or NOS type I, or Neuronal NOS, or Peptidyl-cysteine S-nitrosylase NOS1 and bNOS 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. NOS I has been suggested to have nitrosylase activity and to mediate cysteine S-nitrosylation of cytoplasmic target proteins such SRR. Vasorelaxation, neurotransmission and cytotoxicity can all be potentiated through cellular response to NO. NO production is mediated by members of the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) family. NOS catalyzes the oxidization of L-arginine to produce L-citrulline and NO. Two constitutive isoforms, brain or neuronal NOS (b or nNOS, type I) & endothelial cell NOS (eNOS, type III), and one inducible isoform (iNOS, type II), have been cloned. Cytokines such as interferon-gamma (IFN), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-1 and -2, and lipopolysaccarides (LPS) cause an increase in iNOS mRNA, protein, and activity levels. Protein kinase C-stimulating agents exhibit the same effect on iNOS activity. Human iNOS is regulated by calcium/calmodulin (in contrast with mouse NOS2). |
