Journal ArticleDOI

The structure of nitric oxide synthase oxygenase domain and inhibitor complexes.

TL;DR: Juxtaposed hydrophobic O2- and polar L-arginine-binding sites occupied by imidazole and aminoguanidine, respectively, provide a template for designing dual-function inhibitors and imply substrate-assisted catalysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural Basis for Isozyme-specific Regulation of Electron Transfer in Nitric-oxide Synthase

TL;DR: This work addresses current questions regarding NOS activity and regulation by combining mutagenesis and biochemistry with crystal structure determination of a fully assembled, electron-supplying, neuronal NOS reductase dimer and structurally elucidate the unique mechanisms for isozyme-specific regulation of electron transfer in NOS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kombucha tea fermentation: Microbial and biochemical dynamics.

TL;DR: The data indicate that the microbial community structure and dynamics play an important role in the biochemistry of the fermentation of the beverage and a significantly higher D-saccharic acid-1,4-lactone content and caffeine degradation property compared to previously described Kombucha tea fermentations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction between Caveolin-1 and the Reductase Domain of Endothelial Nitric-oxide Synthase CONSEQUENCES FOR CATALYSIS

TL;DR: It is proposed that cav-1 binding to eNOS reductase compromises its ability to bind CaM and to donate electrons to the eN OS heme, thereby inhibiting NO synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Ferrous-dioxy Complex of Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase: DIVERGENT EFFECTS OF l-ARGININE AND TETRAHYDROBIOPTERIN ON ITS STABILITY

TL;DR: The spectral and kinetic properties of the intermediate identify it as the FeIIO2 complex of nNOSoxy, which may be important regarding the role of this cofactor in NO synthesis.
