Proteomic method identifies proteins nitrated <i>in vivo</i> during inflammatory challenge

Abstract excerpt

Inflammation in asthma, sepsis, transplant rejection, and many neurodegenerative diseases associates an up-regulation of NO synthesis with increased protein nitration at tyrosine. Nitration can cause protein dysfunction and is implicated in pathogenesis, but few proteins that appear nitrated in vivo have been identified. To understand how this modification impacts physiology and disease, we used a proteomic...
