'''BOVINE ENDOTHELIAL NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHASE SUBSTRATE COMPLEX'''
===BOVINE ENDOTHELIAL NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHASE SUBSTRATE COMPLEX===




==Overview==
<!--
Nitric oxide, a key signaling molecule, is produced by a family of enzymes collectively called nitric oxide synthases (NOS). Here, we report the crystal structure of the heme domain of endothelial NOS in tetrahydrobiopterin (H4B)-free and -bound forms at 1.95 A and 1.9 A resolution, respectively. In both structures a zinc ion is tetrahedrally coordinated to pairs of symmetry-related cysteine residues at the dimer interface. The phylogenetically conserved Cys-(X)4-Cys motif and its strategic location establish a structural role for the metal center in maintaining the integrity of the H4B-binding site. The unexpected recognition of the substrate, L-arginine, at the H4B site indicates that this site is poised to stabilize a positively charged pterin ring and suggests a model involving a cationic pterin radical in the catalytic cycle.
The line below this paragraph, {{ABSTRACT_PUBMED_9875848}}, adds the Publication Abstract to the page
(as it appears on PubMed at http://www.pubmed.gov), where 9875848 is the PubMed ID number.
