Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy study of ligand photodissociation and migration in inducible nitric oxide synthase [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/4ta]

Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is a homodimeric heme enzyme that catalyzes the formation of nitric oxide (NO) from dioxygen and L-arginine (L-Arg) in a two-step process. The produced NO can either diffuse out of the heme pocket into the surroundings or it can rebind to the heme iron and inhi...
