Additional Info
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the liver, retina, bone cells and airway epithelial cells of the lung. Not expressed in the platelets. Expressed in chondrocytes. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Polyubiquitinated.mediated by SPSB1, SPSB2 and SPSB4, leading to proteasomal degradation. |
| Function | Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is a messenger molecule with diverse functions throughout the body. In macrophages, NO mediates tumoricidal and bactericidal actions. Also has nitrosylase activity and mediates cysteine S-nitrosylation of cytoplasmic target proteins such PTGS2/COX2. As component of the iNOS-S100A8/9 transnitrosylase complex involved in the selective inflammatory stimulus-dependent S-nitrosylation of GAPDH on 'Cys-247' implicated in regulation of the GAIT complex activity and probably multiple targets including ANXA5, EZR, MSN and VIM. Involved in inflammation, enhances the synthesis of pro-inflammatory mediators such as IL6 and IL8. |
