nNOS

Nitric oxide synthase (neuronal) (nNOS), also known as NOS1, is a synthase that catalyze the production of nitric oxide (NO) from L-arginine. nNOS constitutes the predominant source of NO in neurons and localizes to synaptic spines. Additionally, nNOS is also present in skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle and smooth muscle, where NO controls blood flow and muscle contractility. nNOS is primarily found in the nervous system and is necessary for neuronal signaling. Monomer of nNOS is inactive,dimer is its active form and the dimerization requires tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), heme and L-arginine binding.
