[HTML][HTML] Biochemistry of mitochondrial nitric-oxide synthase

SL Elfering, TM Sarkela, C Giulivi - Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2002 - ASBMB
We reported that the generation of nitric oxide by mitochondria is catalyzed by a constitutive,
mitochondrial nitric-oxide synthase (mtNOS). Given that this production may establish the …
