Abstract
⺠Nitric oxide can signal through S-nitrosation of cysteine residues. ⺠S-Nitrosation can occur through NO oxidation to N2O3 or radical recombination. ⺠Cytochrome c was recently discovered to catalyze the synthesis of GSNO. ⺠Colocalization with NOS isoforms can confer selectivity to S-nitrosation. ⺠Another significant mechanism of selectivity is protein-protein transnitrosation.
