NO synthase: Structures and mechanisms
Abstract
Production of NO from arginine and molecular oxygen is a complex chemical reaction unique to biology. Our understanding of the chemical and regulation mechanisms of the NO synthases has developed over the past two decades, uncovering some extraordinary features. This article reviews recent progress and highlights current issues and controversies. The structure of the enzyme has now been determined almost in entirety, although it is as a selection of fragments, which are difficult to assemble unambiguously. NO synthesis is driven by electron transfer through FAD and FMN cofactors, which is controlled by calmodulin binding in the constitutive mammalian enzymes. Many of the unique structural features involved have been characterised, but the mechanics of calmodulin-dependent activation are largely unresolved. Ultimately, NO is produced in the active site by the reaction of arginine with activated heme-bound oxygen in two distinct cycles. The unique role of the tetrahydrobiopterin cofactor as an electron donor in this process has now been established, but the subsequent chemical events are currently a matter of intense speculation and debate.

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.
