S-nitrosylation of syntaxin 1 at Cys(145) is a regulatory switch controlling Munc18-1 binding.
Exocytosis is regulated by NO in many cell types, including neurons. In the present study we show that syntaxin 1a is a substrate for S-nitrosylation and that NO disrupts the binding of Munc18-1 to the closed conformation of syntaxin 1a in vitro. In contrast, NO does not inhibit SNARE {SNAP [soluble NSF (N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein) attachment protein] receptor} complex formation ...
متن کاملMyosin is reversibly inhibited by S-nitrosylation.
Nitric oxide (NO*) is synthesized in skeletal muscle and its production increases during contractile activity. Although myosin is the most abundant protein in muscle, it is not known whether myosin is a target of NO* or NO* derivatives. In the present study, we have shown that exercise increases protein S-nitrosylation in muscle, and, among contractile proteins, myosin is the principal target o...
متن کاملStructural and functional characterization of the Zn(II) site in dimethylargininase-1 (DDAH-1) from bovine brain. Zn(II) release activates DDAH-1.
L-N(omega),N(omega)-dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase-1 (DDAH-1) is a Zn(II)-containing enzyme that, through hydrolysis of side-chain methylated l-arginines, regulates the activity of nitric-oxide synthase. Herein we report the structural and functional properties of the Zn(II)-binding site in DDAH-1 from bovine brain. Activity measurements of the native and metal-free enzyme have reveale...
متن کاملS-nitrosylation inhibits pannexin 1 channel function.
S-nitrosylation is a post-translational modification on cysteine(s) that can regulate protein function, and pannexin 1 (Panx1) channels are present in the vasculature, a tissue rich in nitric oxide (NO) species. Therefore, we investigated whether Panx1 can be S-nitrosylated and whether this modification can affect channel activity. Using the biotin switch assay, we found that application of the...
متن کاملS-nitrosylation of dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase regulates enzyme activity: further interactions between nitric oxide synthase and dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase.
The enzyme dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH) hydrolyses asymmetrically methylated arginine residues that are endogenously produced inhibitors of nitric oxide synthases (NOS). We and others have proposed that DDAH activity is a key determinant of intracellular methylarginine concentrations and that factors that regulate the activity of DDAH may modulate nitric oxide (NO) production ...
