S-Nitrosylation of NSF Controls Membrane Trafficking
Nitric oxide is a diffusible molecule with profound effects on regulated exocytosis in several biological systems-however, the molecular targets remain elusive. In this issue of Cell, Matsushita et al. report that in aortic endothelial cells, S-nitrosylation of NSF, an ATPase essential for the activation of the membranefusion machinery, inhibits the exocytosis of Weibel-Palade bodies, secretory...
متن کاملS-Nitrosylation of Surfactant Protein-D Controls Inflammatory Function
The pulmonary collectins, surfactant proteins A and D (SP-A and SP-D) have been implicated in the regulation of the innate immune system within the lung. In particular, SP-D appears to have both pro- and anti-inflammatory signaling functions. At present, the molecular mechanisms involved in switching between these functions remain unclear. SP-D differs in its quaternary structure from SP-A and ...
متن کاملS-Nitrosylation of mitochondrial caspases
Caspase-3 is a cysteine protease located in both the cytoplasm and mitochondrial intermembrane space that is a central effector of many apoptotic pathways. In resting cells, a subset of caspase-3 zymogens is S-nitrosylated at the active site cysteine, inhibiting enzyme activity. During Fas-induced apoptosis, caspases are denitrosylated, allowing the catalytic site to function. In the current st...
متن کاملActin S-Nitrosylation Inhibits Neutrophil
The focus of this work was to elucidate the mechanism for inhibition of neutrophil 2 integrin adhesion molecules by hyperoxia. Results demonstrate that exposure to high oxygen partial pressures increases synthesis of reactive species derived from type 2 nitric-oxide synthase andmyeloperoxidase, leading to excessive S-nitrosylation of -actin and possibly profilin. Hyperoxia causes S-nitrosylatio...
متن کاملS-nitrosylation in cardiovascular signaling.
Well over 2 decades have passed since the endothelium-derived relaxation factor was reported to be the gaseous molecule nitric oxide (NO). Although soluble guanylyl cyclase (which generates cyclic guanosine monophosphate, cGMP) was the first identified receptor for NO, it has become increasingly clear that NO exerts a ubiquitous influence in a cGMP-independent manner. In particular, many, if no...
