Biophysical Investigations of the Interactions between Calmodulin and Nitric Oxide Synthase Enzymes
(University of Waterloo, 2017-12-15)Nitric Oxide (•NO) is an essential biomolecule that has physiological functions in neurotransmission, vasodilation and immune response. •NO is produced by a family of enzymes known as nitric oxide synthases (NOS). NOS ... -
Role of NOS-like proteins found in bacteria
(University of Waterloo, 2007-01-22)Nitric oxide (•NO) is a molecule with diverse biological effects involved in both signaling and defense mechanisms in mammalian systems. The production of •NO is catalyzed from L-Arginine by a family of enzymes known as ... -
Structural Investigation of Melatonin and its Metabolites as Possible Calmodulin Antagonists
(University of Waterloo, 2020-09-11)Calmodulin (CaM) is a small, highly conserved and ubiquitous calcium (Ca2+)-sensing protein that coordinates signal transduction through interactions with over 300 target molecules. It is composed of N- and C-terminal ...
