Abstract excerpt
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a key regulator of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in vivo. Despite its functional importance, little is known about the underlying molecular mechanism. Here, purified dimeric human Hsp90α was used to investigate whether (and if so, how) Hsp90 affects the FMN-heme interdomain electron transfer (IET) step in NOS. Hsp90α increases the IET rate for rat neuronal NOS (nNOS) in a...
