  5. NOS type II
  6. iNOS
  7. Peptidyl-cysteine S-nitrosylase NOS2
Gene Name NOS2
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in oxidoreductase activity
Specific Function Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is a messenger molecule with diverse functions throughout the body. In macrophages, NO mediates tumoricidal and bactericidal actions. Also has nitrosylase activity and mediates cysteine S-nitrosylation of cytoplasmic target proteins such COX2.
