Function
Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is a messenger molecule with diverse functions throughout the body. In the brain and peripheral nervous system, NO displays many properties of a neurotransmitter. Probably has nitrosylase activity and mediates cysteine S-nitrosylation of cytoplasmic target proteins such SRR.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Human Nitric oxide synthase, brain
Subcellular Location
Cell membrane sarcolemma Peripheral membrane protein Cell projection dendritic spine In skeletal muscle, it is localized beneath the sarcolemma of fast-twitch muscle fiber by associating with the dystrophin glycoprotein complex. In neurons, enriched in dendritic spines.
Homodimer. Interacts with DLG4; the interaction possibly being prevented by the association between NOS1 and CAPON. Forms a ternary complex with CAPON and RASD1. Forms a ternary complex with CAPON and SYN1. Interacts with ZDHHC23. Interacts with NOSIP; which may impair its synaptic location (By similarity). Interacts with HTR4. Interacts with VAC14 (By similarity). Interacts with SLC6A4.
