Background
Nitric oxide synthase 1 , IHPS1 , N-NOS , NC-NOS , NOS , bNOS , nNOS,Nitric oxide (NO) is a messenger molecule with diverse functions throughout the body. In the brain and peripheral nervous system, NO displays many properties of a neurotransmitter, it is implicated in neurotoxicity associated with stroke and neurodegenerative diseases, neural regulation of smooth muscle, including peristalsis, and penile erection. NO is also responsible for endothelium-derived relaxing factor activity regulating blood pressure. In macrophages, NO mediates tumoricidal and bactericidal actions, as indicated by the fact that inhibitors of NO synthase (NOS) block these effects. Neuronal NOS and macrophage NOS (MIM 163730) are distinct isoforms (Lowenstein et al., 1992 [PubMed 1379716]). Both the neuronal and the macrophage forms are unusual among oxidative enzymes in requiring several electron donors: FAD (see MIM 610595), flavin mononucleotide (FMN), NADPH, and tetrahydrobiopterin.[supplied by OMIM]
