nitric oxide [NO] synthase

Introduction

Nitric oxide synthases produce nitric oxide.

More general terms

• oxidoreductase
• calmodulin binding protein
• oligomerizing protein

More specific terms

• NO synthase-1 (calmodulin NO synthase, NADPH diaphorase, neuronal NO synthase, nNOS)
• NO synthase-2 (inducible, i-NOS)
• NO synthase-3 (endothelial NO synthase, NOS3, ENOS)

Additional terms

• nitric oxide (NO, endothelium derived relaxation factor {EDRF})
