Aberrant protein S-nitrosylation contributes to the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases

Nitric oxide (NO) is a gasotransmitter that impacts fundamental aspects of neuronal function in large measure through S-nitrosylation, a redox reaction that occurs on regulatory cysteine thiol groups. For instance, S-nitrosylation regulates enzymatic activity of target proteins via inhibition of act...
