Abstract

The particulate enzyme, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), produces nitric oxide to maintain normal vasodilator tone in blood vessels. In this study, we demonstrate that eNOS is a Golgi-associated protein in cultured endothelial cells and intact blood vessels. Using a heterologous expression system in HEK 293 cells, we show that wild-type myristoylated and palmitoylated eNOS, but not mutant, non-acylated eNOS targets to the Golgi. More importantly, HEK 293 cells expressing wild-type eNOS release substantially more NO than cells expressing the mutant, non-acylated enzyme. Thus, eNOS is a novel Golgi-associated protein, and Golgi compartmentalization is necessary for the enzyme to respond to intracellular signals and produce NO.

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.
