The H-NOX protein structure adapts to different mechanisms in sensors interacting with nitric oxide

چکیده
Some classes of bacteria within phyla possess protein sensors identified as homologous to the heme domain soluble guanylate cyclase, mammalian NO-receptor. Named H-NOX (Heme-Nitric Oxide or OXygen-binding),...

Tunnels modulate ligand flux in a heme nitric oxide/oxygen binding (H-NOX) domain.
Interior topological features, such as pockets and channels, have evolved in proteins to regulate biological functions by facilitating the diffusion of biomolecules. Decades of research using the globins as model heme proteins have clearly highlighted the importance of gas pockets around the heme in controlling the capture and release of O(2). However, much less is known about how ligand migrat...
متن کاملA novel polymorphism in nitric oxide synthase interacting protein (NOSIP) modulates nitric oxide synthesis and influences mortality in human sepsis
Nitric oxide performs a wide variety of versatile functions in the immune system. But it's precise role in the pathogenesis of acute inflammation and sepsis is still controversial. In the present study, we demonstrate a novel mutation in nitric oxide synthase interacting protein (NOSIP) and its association with mortality in sepsis. We also show direct physical interaction of NOSIP with inducibl...
متن کاملA Structural Basis for the Regulation of an H-NOX-Associated Cyclic-di-GMP Synthase/Phosphodiesterase Enzyme by Nitric Oxide-Bound H-NOX
Biofilms are surface-attached communities of bacteria enclosed in a polysaccharide matrix. Bacteria in a biofilm are extremely resistant to antibiotics. Several recent reports have linked the signaling molecule nitric oxide (NO) with biofilm dispersal. We have previously reported that an H-NOX (heme-nitric oxide/oxygen binding) protein in the biofilm-dwelling bacterium Shewanella woodyi mediate...
متن کاملElectrochemical nitric oxide sensors for physiological measurements.
The important biological roles of nitric oxide (NO) have prompted the development of analytical techniques capable of sensitive and selective detection of NO. Electrochemical sensing, more than any other NO detection method, embodies the parameters necessary for quantifying NO in challenging physiological environments such as blood and the brain. In this tutorial review, we provide a broad over...
متن کاملNitric oxide synthase (NOS)-interacting protein interacts with neuronal NOS and regulates its distribution and activity.
Mechanisms governing the activity of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), the major source of nitric oxide (NO) in the nervous system, are not completely understood. We report here a protein-protein interaction between nNOS and NOSIP (nitric oxide synthase-interacting protein) in rat brain in vivo. NOSIP and nNOS are concentrated in neuronal synapses and demonstrate significant colocalization...
