Tetrahydrobiopterin in nitric oxide synthase
Open accessAbstract
Summary: Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) is a critical enzyme for the production of the messenger molecule nitric oxide (NO) from L‐arginine. NOS enzymes require tetrahydrobiopterin as a cofactor for NO synthesis. Besides being one of the few enzymes to use this cofactor, the role of tetrahydrobiopterin in NOS catalytic mechanism is different from other enzymes: during the catalytic cycle of NOS, tetrahydrobiopterin forms a radical species that is again reduced, thus effectively regenerating after each NO synthesis cycle. In this review, we summarize our current knowledge about the role of tetrahydrobiopterin in the structure, function, and catalytic mechanism of NOS enzymes. © 2013 IUBMB Life 65(4):358–365, 2013.

Competing reactions, namely NO scavenging by ferrous heme and NO dioxygenation, greatly decrease the amount of bioavailable NO generated by reactions of nitrite with heme proteins.
“It should be noted that competing reactions, namely the scavenging of NO by the ferrous heme [rate constants in the order of 1.7 × 107 to 1.5 × 108 M−1s−1 (180, 967), Eq. 6] and the rate of NO dioxygenation [rate constants in the order of 3.4 × 107 to 8.9 × 107 M−1s−1 for mammalian Hb/Mb (264, 341), Eq. 8] greatly decrease the amount of bioavailable NO generated by the reactions of nitrite with he”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
