Additional Info
Tissue Specificity
Expressed in the liver, retina, bone cells and airway epithelial cells of the lung. Not expressed in the platelets. Expressed in chondrocytes.
Post Translational Modifications
Polyubiquitinated.mediated by SPSB1, SPSB2 and SPSB4, leading to proteasomal degradation.
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 PTGS2/COX2. As component of the iNOS-S100A8/9 transnitrosylase complex involved in the selective inflammatory stimulus-dependent S-nitrosylation of GAPDH on 'Cys-247' implicated in regulation of the GAIT complex activity and probably multiple targets including ANXA5, EZR, MSN and VIM. Involved in inflammation, enhances the synthesis of pro-inflammatory mediators such as IL6 and IL8.
