Nitric Oxide Synthase (NOS) is a group of enzymes catalysing L-arginine to yield L-Citrulline and Nitric Oxide[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitric_Oxide] (NO). NOS is a homodimeric protein with 125- to 160-kD subunits. An overview of the NOS homodimer is given below. All cofactors are included and the electron transfer pathway which takes place in NOS is indicated. | Nitric Oxide Synthase (NOS) is a group of enzymes catalysing L-arginine to yield L-Citrulline and Nitric Oxide[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitric_Oxide] (NO).
