Identification of nitric oxide as an endogenous inhibitor of 26S proteasomes in vascular endothelial cells.

The 26S proteasome plays a fundamental role in almost all eukaryotic cells, including vascular endothelial cells. However, it remains largely unknown how proteasome functionality is regulated in the vasculature. Endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase (eNOS)-derived NO is known to be essential to mai...
