Multiple catalytic functions of brain nitric oxide synthase. Biochemical characterization, cofactor-requirement, and the role of N omega-hydroxy-L-arginine as an intermediate.

J. Biol. Chem. 268 , 14781, (1993)

Brain NO (nitric oxide) synthase contains FAD, FMN, heme, and tetrahydrobiopterin as prosthetic groups and represents a multi-functional oxidoreductase catalyzing oxidation of L-arginine to NO and L-citrulline, formation of H2O2, and reduction of cytochrome c...

Hydrogen peroxide-supported oxidation of NG-hydroxy-L-arginine by nitric oxide synthase.

Biochemistry 34 , 1930, (1995)

The ability of murine macrophage nitric oxide synthase (NOS) to utilize peroxides in place of O2 and NADPH was investigated using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), tert-butylhydroperoxide, and cumene hydroperoxide with both L-arginine and NG-hydroxy-L-arginine (L-NHA...

Characteristics of the nitric oxide synthase-catalyzed conversion of arginine to N-hydroxyarginine, the first oxygenation step in the enzymic synthesis of nitric oxide.

J. Biol. Chem. 270 , 1721, (1995)

The nitric oxide synthase-catalyzed conversion of L-arginine to L-citrulline and nitric oxide is known to be the sum of two partial reactions: oxygenation of arginine to N-hydroxyarginine, followed by oxygenation of N-hydroxyarginine to citrulline and nitric ...

Arginase inhibition prevents inflammation and remodeling in a guinea pig model of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. , (2014)

Airway inflammation and remodeling are major features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), whereas pulmonary hypertension is a common comorbidity associated with a poor disease prognosis. Recent studies in animal models have indicated that increas...

N omega-hydroxyl-L-arginine, an intermediate in the L-arginine to nitric oxide pathway, is a strong inhibitor of liver and macrophage arginase.

Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 203 , 1614, (1994)

N omega-Hydroxy-L-arginine (L-NOHA) is a potent inhibitor of the hydrolysis of L-arginine (L-Arg) to L-ornithine (L-Orn) catalyzed by purified bovine liver arginase (BLA). It appears as one of the most powerful arginase inhibitors reported so far (Ki = 150 mi...

Inhibition of rat liver arginase by an intermediate in NO biosynthesis, NG-hydroxy-L-arginine: implications for the regulation of nitric oxide biosynthesis by arginase.

Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 202 , 174, (1994)

NG-hydroxy-L-arginine, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of nitric oxide (NO), has been found to be a uniquely potent competitive inhibitor of rat liver arginase. Among previously reported inhibitors of arginase and the eight arginine analogs tested herein,...
