Reactions of Recombinant Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase with Redox Cycling Xenobiotics: A Mechanistic Study

Neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) catalyzes single-electron reduction of quinones (Q), nitroaromatic compounds (ArNO<sub>2</sub>) and aromatic <i>N</i>-oxides (ArN → O), and is partly responsible for their oxidative stress-type cytotoxicity. In order to expand a limited k...
