Efficient nitrosation of glutathione by nitric oxide☆
Nitrosothiols are increasingly regarded as important participants in a range of physiological processes, yet little is known about their biological generation. Nitrosothiols can be formed from the corresponding thiols by nitric oxide in a reaction that requires the presence of oxygen and is mediated by reactive intermediates (NO₂ or N₂O₃) formed in the course of NO autoxidation. Because the aut...
متن کاملNitric oxide cell signaling: S-nitrosation of Ras superfamily GTPases.
The Ras superfamily of small GTPases cycle between inactive GDP-bound and active GTP-bound states to modulate a diverse array of processes involved in cellular growth control. While the basic mechanisms by which GTPase regulatory proteins regulate GTPase substrates have been revealed through numerous studies, detailed studies into the mechanism(s) of free radical-mediated GTPase regulation have...
متن کاملNitric oxide-induced inhibition of smooth muscle cell proliferation involves S-nitrosation and inactivation of RhoA.
Nitric oxide (NO) acts as a vasoregulatory molecule that inhibits vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation. Studies have illustrated that NO inhibits SMC proliferation via the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway, leading to increased protein levels of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21(Waf1/Cip1). The ERK pathway can be pro- or antiproliferative, and it has been de...
متن کاملFocusing of nitric oxide mediated nitrosation and oxidative nitrosylation as a consequence of reaction with superoxide.
The impact of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis on different biological cascades can rapidly change dependent on the rate of NO formation and composition of the surrounding milieu. With this perspective, we used diaminonaphthalene (DAN) and diaminofluorescein (DAF) to examine the nitrosative chemistry derived from NO and superoxide (O2-) simultaneously generated at nanomolar to low micromolar per min...
متن کاملNitric oxide and posttranslational modification of the vascular proteome: S-nitrosation of reactive thiols.
Nitric oxide (NO*) is known to exert its effects via guanylyl cyclase and cyclic GMP-dependent pathways and by cyclic GMP-independent pathways, including the posttranslational modification of proteins. Much ongoing research is focused on defining the mechanisms of NO*-mediated protein modification, the identity and function of the modified proteins, and the significance of these changes in heal...
