Anchored plasticity opens doors for selective inhibitor design in nitric oxide synthase
- E. Garcin, A. S. Arvai, +18 authors E. Getzoff
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature chemical biology
- 12 October 2008
Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) enzymes synthesize nitric oxide, a signal for vasodilatation and neurotransmission at low levels, and a defensive cytotoxin at higher levels. The high active-site… Expand
