Abstract excerpt
Nitric oxide (NO*) is a toxin, and various life forms appear to have evolved strategies for its detoxification. NO*-resistant mutants of Escherichia coli were isolated that rapidly consumed NO*. An NO*-converting activity was reconstituted in extracts that required NADPH, FAD, and O2, was cyanide...
