Purification and characterization of a nitric-oxide synthase from rat liver mitochondria

A Tatoyan, C Giulivi - Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1998 - ASBMB
The biosynthesis of nitric oxide (NO⋅) in different cell types occurs concomitantly with the
conversion ofl-arginine to l-citrulline by the enzyme nitric-oxide synthase (NOS). NO⋅ has …

Characterization and function of mitochondrial nitric-oxide synthase

C Giulivi - Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2003 - Elsevier
The mitochondrial production of nitric oxide is catalyzed by a nitric-oxide synthase. This
enzyme has the same cofactor and substrate requirements as other constitutive nitric-oxide …

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 …

[HTML][HTML] Nitric oxide synthase activity in mitochondria

P Ghafourifar, C Richter - FEBS letters, 1997 - Elsevier
In the present study we show the existence of a functional nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in rat
liver mitochondria. The enzyme uses l-arginine (l-arg) to produce nitric oxide (NO) and l …
